If you were just like me and going to school (or getting ready to go), you are probably overwhelmed by everything you need to buy.  Textbooks, paper, pens, supplies, and everything else seems to add up quickly.  And of course there are laptop computers and the costs to buy one of those.  While most schools don’t necessarily require you to own a computer, it’s a really smart decision to get one.  Every teacher requires typed assignments and the library and school computers are only available for limited parts of the day.  If you’re someone that likes to procrastinate (like me) you probably can’t rely on the unreliable school computers.  Sometimes school assignments get put off until the night before they’re due and there is absolutely no access available for any computers except for ones that you own.  So, if you’re someone that thinks they can benefit from the convenience of owning a laptop–which I’m pretty sure you can–you’re probably wondering “what laptop you should buy for school” as well as “how do I finance a college laptop”?  The first answer is fairly easy to answer and I can list a couple laptops that are really popular for students.  The second answer can be a bit more tricky.  It’s not that getting financing is particularly difficult, its just that getting financing as a student can result in nasty interest rates and high monthly payments.  If you’re a student who wants cheap monthly payments for a laptop, you’re probably going to want to be smart about who you get financing from.
