What kind of a computer should a student bring to Daemen College?
A. Any recently purchased computer will be adequate for the academic needs of Daemen students. For older computers, a minimum configuration for academic purposes only would be Windows XP Service Pack 3, an Intel® Pentium® 4, Intel Centrino®, or Intel Core™ Duo (or compatible) processor, and a minimum of 1 Gb of memory, or a Macintosh computer running OS 10.3 or higher. For NetBooks, we would recommend a minimum of 20 Gb of hard disk space. Most students use computers with the Windows 7 or Windows Vista operating system. Students majoring in graphic design may prefer to use a computer with the Macintosh operating system. Laptop computers are convenient and the most popular choice, but not required. .
