If you are headed to college this fall, you might need a new or pre-owned Apple^® computer for help completing classroom assignments. Some options are ideal for hardcore use, while others are light, portable, and suitable for everyday computing needs. To help you decide, here are a few of your options.

Portability

If size and weight are the most important factors for you, an Apple laptop is the way to go. The smallest and most lightweight model is the MacBook Air^®. It’s less than an inch thick when closed and about 12-inches wide and 7.5-inches deep. It also weighs under 2.5 pounds and is exceptionally easy to carry to class or the library. If you only plan to use a computer for basic functions, such as web browsing and word processing, a smaller laptop is the perfect choice.

Graphic Arts

New and pre-owned Apple computers are known as the go-to brand for graphic artists, filmmakers, and other creative types. If you are attending college for graphic design, consider the MacBook Pro^®. It has a larger, 15-inch screen to make it easier to see what you're creating and accommodate the numerous windows many graphic programs have. At 4 pounds, it is a bit larger and heavier than the MacBook Air, but it’s still portable enough to take with you.

Gaming 

Gaming requires a lot of random access memory (RAM) and a fast processor. Because gaming computers normally don't need to be portable, an iMac^® is a good choice. It features a large, 27-inch screen for maximum viewing enjoyment and 4 GB of RAM. It's fast and has enough memory, so you can enjoy smooth gameplay—without lags or interruptions.
