My laptop is no good anymore and I am starting an OU degree in October.
I was going to buy a new laptop but got really confused with the choices and then stumbled upon Chromebooks which are obviously cheaper and I like that they won't get slower as they don't fill up memory wise, it's all cloud based.
OU have confirmed that all my modules are online ones so I shouldn't need a CD-ROM drive. If I needed Microsoft Office then I could use the library. I've been using my iPad for everyday things, hence why my laptop has fallen behind with modern times, I could get an iPad keyboard but I'm not sure if I would like this set up for studying, with having no mouse/tracker pad thing.
I'm swaying towards the Chromebook (and quite like the idea of Chromecast which I could get with it) but does anyone have any words of wisdom?
