DS2 is reading English in Uni so does a lot of essays etc but no complicated graphics/calclations/tables etc for assignments. His laptop has died. It was an old one of ours. Toshiba, at least 6-7 years old, big and clunky but served him well. Anyway he now needs a replacement. He cycles to and from uni so would love something small and light. He has seen this reduced in a sale to £770 including keyboard and has fallen in love! Has i5 processor, 6th generation, 4gb RAM and 128GB hard drive memory. He has been working part time and will top up the extra from the laptop I was prepared to by which was £420, had same processor and RAM memory but 1TB hard drive memory. 15'6" screen so bigger and heavier obviously. I am inclined to let him off with his fancy one as he is young and excited by it, he has been making do for the past 18/12 with a distinctly non trendy laptop, he has earned the difference himself and he uses my old phone so no history of wanting shiny new gadgets! My only slight concern is whether he will get the functionality he needs from it.
Anyone have any advice?
