We were planning to get my ds a laptop for Christmas in preparation for uni next Autumn, as I assumed most students took laptops with them to lectures these days.
However my ds thinks he will take his desktop computer (an Apple Mac which he is very attached to) with him (provided he gets accommodation he can stay in over Christmas & Easter), so does not think he needs a laptop.
Does anyone know if students use laptops in lectures / tutorials etc. He will be doing a maths or science based degree if that makes any difference.
