A:Answer It would be a great computer for taking to class to take notes on or make small changes to projects while at school, but I wouldn't recommend buying it as a primary laptop to last through all of college. The processor is pretty slow and 2Gb of RAM doesn't allow you to run very many programs. The 64Gb hard drive is also way too small for a daily-use PC. My daughter only uses it for work at school, has hardly any programs on it, and it's already down below 25Gb free space. I think this machine is high enough quality to last for 4 years, but it will be obsolete well before it dies.
