What kind of computer “stuff” do I need for college?
I am going to be getting a laptop for college, somewhere in the relm of 0-700, a wireless mouse and printer/scanner/copier. What else do I need for it? Will I need a special card for connecting to wifi? I don’t want to spend a lot and buy a lot of fancy stuff I just need the basic necessary extras, but I am not sure what those are.

Best answer:

microsoft office–powerpoint, word, excel.

    B4 U buy computer ask the college U will be attending what kind they want U to get. 2 yrs. ago a lot of parents were really annoyed by a college. They got computers for their kids in summer because the college said they needed a computer. It was not till classes started that they were told they needed a particular type. Most had to get a 2nd computer. Good luck.

    Nope, all the new laptops have built in WiFi.

    So you’re ready to go..

    Just make sure you have these programs:

    Microsoft Office, and maybe Photoshop.
