How about a rock and a chisel? A computer is the tool of choice for a EE or CS major. If you're a EE, you will need a computer quite often for doing SPICE simulations, code development, matlab homework problems, schematic capture, pcb layout etc.
The computer for a EE or CS student is a third arm. Learn to use it as efficiently as possible. Computers are amazing tools!
- kelnos 16y agoI went through an EE program (took a bunch of CS courses too), and graduated in 2003. I didn't have a laptop through the entire thing. A computer, sure. I had one in my dorm room. Laptops were nice, but not essential. I certainly hope that hasn't changed in the past seven years... it would be pretty sad if so. (Then again, I also didn't have a cell phone during college, and now I have no idea how I got along without one.) edit: To my recollection, when I was in college, the people who had laptops in class did email, wasted time on Slashdot, or played games. Seems like it was more of a distraction than it was useful.
