DCU smartbook

26-09-2012 03:03PM#1Hey!
Can anyone reccomend this smartbook programme DCU has introduced. Need a new laptop and im staying well away from dell's so unsure what to get next. It's seems great that there is a month by month payment thing. Can anyone who has availed of the offer yet tell me more? Also, what size is the screen, couldn't see it on the website. Thanks

Hello there,
I havent bought it myself nor do I have any plan to do so. I have a PC and netbook at home, so it doesnt interest me.
My advice would be the same as for anybody buying ANY laptop. Have a look around. The price could be a large discount on what the usual price is. But do you really need a top of the range model for the course you are doing ?
Do you need the full 15" screen for your work ? ie could a netbook do the job ?
Shop around. Id say start at pixmania.ie I dont work for them
Just had a look there, and you can get a very good spec laptop for 400/500 euro.
True, you do get some software, but you could probs get Office student edition fairly cheaply. And a lot of decent security software is available for free online anyway
