Re: Computer purchase help

I would also talk to your school and see what there restrictions are. I know our school needs to approve the computers before we use them in the school/on the schools network.

I also would not count on the drivers station for programming. First of all FIRST may not let you and second I remember reading that the the Classmates we will be getting only have like a 1-4gb SSD?

Ask some members of the team if they have any older computers that they would like to donate to the team, this worked for us!!
