Is this a good computer for a college student? null

No, not even close. First, the 32G SSD drive is a lie. Dell makes a model that has an SSD drive that also will update to 4G. If hat was so for this Best Buy computer it would be a good computer, but this is falsely advertised. It will not even take the windows 10 update...there is not enough room on the hard drive. Windows 10 take up 80% of the drive space, the update can't even download besides install. This is a bait and switch computer.

It depends on what you're looking to do with it. I bought it because I wanted something small and light to carry instead of my big laptop. The storage capacity is really small so you either have to storage documents online or in an external HD or flash drive. If you just want for Internet and write few assignments you'll be fine.

It is a great Chromebook but I would not recommend it for the college student because of the small screen size and the limited hard drive space.
