Here’s some great news for our United States customers who want to cut the costs of sending their kids to college!
Under the new American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, taxpayers who buy Laptop Computers for their children in 2009 and 2010 can claim those Laptops, Notebooks, and netbooks as qualified higher education expenses.
The Act defines computer-related qualified expenses as any expense incurred for buying any computer technology and equipment, as well as Internet access and related services as long as the equipment and technology is used by the student and the student’s family during any of the years the student is enrolled at an eligible educational institution.
All of you who have college-aged kids know that tuition cost have skyrocketed – so this additional perk is a welcome benefit. Now this tax break is only in effect through 2010, so those who have children in college or kids ready to start school in September need to start shopping for new Laptops.

But which Laptop computer has the right technical, productive, and entertainment components to fit your needs?
That depends on what you need your Laptop Computer to do, as well as where and when you’re going to use it! Are you a casual traveler, or a frequent-flyer?

If you’re after impressive performance speeds and a comprehensive set of integrated features, look for a laptop with a fast, dual-core or better processor, large capacity hard drive with fast read/write speeds and plenty of RAM memory. 2 gigabytes is probably the minimum you can go with in a performance machine; shoot for something closer to 4 gigabytes of DDR2 memory if you’re going to be using Windows Vista.

If you fly frequently, then portability is going to be your main concern. Consider one of the slim, lightweight laptops from Sony VAIO. These notebook computers feature processors (or CPUs) that have been optimized for mobility. This means these notebook PCs are energy efficient as well as compact. If you notice that no notebook is mobile enough for your needs, you’ll want to check out the ultra-portable Netbook platforms. These light-use internet and computer consoles are just the thing for on-the-go computing, and they’re cheap as well.
You’ll want to be able to connect to the Internet at any WiFi hotspot, so look for a laptop computer that has built-in 802.11G or 802.11N wireless technology. If none of these models or technology combinations sounds right for you, you can always customize your own with a Systemax Build To Order Laptop. If you can’t wait to get your hands on a new Laptop computer, there’s no reason to delay. You’ll the Notebook PC that’s right for you here on our website!
