Hello I'm New - Laptop or Tablet

Options
Good Afternoon All,

I have just signed up for my first year, and wanted to ask if you are all using Laptops or Tablets.

I will need to buy one , just dont know which way to go.

I would prefer a tablet, as I can then use this when I am out and about.

Please let me know your thoughts, hopefully then I make a choice :)

Thank you

    What are you wanting to use it for? If for study most of it would be okay with a tablet but I think doing the accounting software module you might need a laptop (not sure how well the tablets handle the programs for this.)

    Tablets can handle accounting software provided they have the right spec (e.g. at least 8gb ram) and the right operating system (e.g. windows 10). Some tablets even have a numeric keypad although they are expensive (about 700 pounds).
