Comments on: Would your student like the Sony S Series laptop? http://www.parentscountdowntocollegecoach.com/2011/07/15/would-your-student-like-the-sony-s-series-laptop/ Helping parents navigate the college maze Sat, 30 Apr 2016 20:50:00 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.4.2 By: WineGirl http://www.parentscountdowntocollegecoach.com/2011/07/15/would-your-student-like-the-sony-s-series-laptop/#comment-1281 Wed, 20 Jul 2011 15:30:06 +0000 http://www.parentscountdowntocollegecoach.com/?p=2238#comment-1281 That’s quite scary that most parents don’t ask more…I really though most parents would have learnt over the last 10 years….I would excuse my parents not asking the same questions as Grandparents but would expect my friend too…perhaps I should ask around and make sure they do know that they should look at more and not dismiss what the kids say as just ‘wanting’! I’ll check the articles out as always good to learn more..thanks :)

But I’ve come to realize that most parents are not and need the very basic ones answered. If you need more answered, the articles I posted fully explain the laptop and all it’s bells and whistles much more clearly than I ever could. Check them out!

Does it have enough memory?
Is it wireless and does it have a built in camera?
Are there enough usb ports to plug in all my devices?
How long will the battery last?
How much does it weigh since I’ll be carting it back and forth to class?

And then I will look at the cost….maybe as I work in a software environment I would ask different questions to some parents but I think most would ask more than the first three..don’t you?
