how about this refurbished Lenovo Thinkpad T430 it has a nice i5 cpu, an upgradable 4gb ram and a 320gb hdd storage space. or you might want to take a look at this Lenovo IBM Thinkpad T420 and this Lenovo Thinkpad T420 Notebook PC as good alternatives.
Your classmates have some of the best advice around - be sure and listen to them.
But just something to consider:
The Lenovo ThinkPad "T" series is among the most popular business laptops in the US.
Large companies buy them or lease them in the thousands. Then, when we are done with them, we sell them or the leasing company sells them to a refurbisher, and they either try to sell them on Amazon or ships them off to a 2nd/3rd world charity.
The ThinkPad "T" is night and day different from any Lenovo device you can put your hands on at BestBuy.
It's solidly well built, and very easy to repair, compared to most laptops.
Here is an example for $320:
Lenovo ThinkPad T430 i5, 4GB RAM, 320Gb HDD, CD/DVD
$100 or less will let you max the RAM out to somewhere between 8-16GB.
Then another $150 for a 500GB SSD.
Boom, solid like a rock laptop for ~$500.
Then you leverage your Microsoft DreamSpark student access to download Windows 8 or Windows 10 and the latest Microsoft Office, and you're all set.
If money is tight, $300ish for what was top-of-the-line 3 years ago will last longer, and run better than the frighteningly low-end devices you can buy new in the same price range.
