What would you do for your college computing needs? Laptop/desktop/netbook/combo?

you're typing your notes as the professor is speaking...windows encounters an error and needs to restart...your professor will wait for you to reboot...hopefully without errors...and then restart the entire lecture just for you because you lost all your information..............right.........g… the higher end PC and maybe a laptop if you'd like...PC can always be upgraded if the need arises...especially if he needs to run some design programs that require higher end graphics cards...piecing one together from newegg.com will save you $$ too...especially since money will be a little tighter but also for safety as well because some programs may need stronger graphics or more ram...and sometimes prebuilt computers like HP/DELL may be good, but they become obsolete and unsupported a couple years later as the new model is out and you are stuck with upgrading your ram as the easiest thing you could do and maybe add a graphics card...the sales man might not always be sure if the motherboard supports certain processors...but with building your own...you can upgrade bits and pieces at a time and not be as limited with your computer setup and you'll know the specs on it especially since QUAD CORE processors are really cheap right now...so...what will be next year's model...?
