Back to School Tech Guide: Notebooks & Tablets

It’s time to load up on the latest and greatest gadgets for the pending school year. Last year’s MacBook isn’t the same as this year’s, and the iPad isn’t the only viable tablet anymore. Laptops and tablets are a helpful tool for most students so you need to make sure you stay current on today’s best notebooks and tabs.

To help you prep for your return to the classroom, here are some of our favorite accessories for back to school tech:

1. Apple’s MacBook Pro Retina – OK, it may not be the cheapest notebook on the block, but few laptop computers can compete with Apple’s newest line of notebooks. The MacBook Pro with Retina display has more processor speed than a Gazelle and a 15-inch display with more than double the pixels of an HDTV the same size. Whether you desire power or aesthetics, the MacBook Pro can handle almost any need for today’s academic.

2. The New iPad – Did somebody say high resolution? Apple’s new iPad, released in March 2012, boasts the first HD display among commercial tablets, along with the same Apple goodies that Mac fans cherish. Not only is it a user-friendly tablet with a sleek, metallic design, but the New iPad also boasts the blazing fast iOS 5.

3. Google’s Nexus 7 Tab – Imagine an Android tablet with a quad-core processor, impressive display and Android OS 4.1. Now imagine this with a price tag almost half that of the iPad. You are now imagining the Google Nexus 7 Tab. For the budget-conscious student or parent, Google’s dog in the tablet race offers a serviceable product below market value of elite technologies.
