Mild (old) games to none. Hulu's pretty important though.

Anywhere where I can get an education discount!

It'll be great if theres a firewire slot, but it's not necessary. The portability aspect is most important so good wireless connectivity will be great.

No prejudice. HP looks sweet but there may be better deals.
