Hello! I'm going off to college soon!
I'm planning to bring a desktop and a laptop to college. The desktop for gaming, and laptop for work.
With my laptop, I will be doing: Microsoft Word, Excel, surfing web, email, online homework, Netflix, YouTube. But I need my laptop to be quiet, cool(not hot), and fast.
With my desktop, I will be doing everything I do with the laptop, plus gaming. I plan to use the desktop more heavily as I can have a bigger monitor and it will make things easier to use.
I plan to get a portable, reliable, fast external hard drive so that I have contents from both my laptop and desktop in one place.
So my question is twofold:
1) Do you think my plan is solid? From experience, do you suggest any alternatives to my plan?
2) What kind of laptop am I looking for?
Thank you guys!
