Student Desktops: Best Deals on Student Desktop Computers

Desktop manufacturers don't necessarily design student desktops specifically for college or high school use. Any desktop computer could be considered a student desktop. College or high school students have to decide how they want and need to use their desktop computer. In general I would recommend a dual-core processor, at least 1 GB memory, at least a 250 GB hard drive, a DVD/CD burner, Microsoft Office, and the Windows Vista Premium operating system. You can get student desktops for under $300 but the specifications won't meet what I outlined above. If that's OK with you and you just want to surf the internet, send and receive email, listen to music, watch DVDs and videos, and download or save a reasonable amount of files then check out the cheapest desktop computers on the market today.

There are several good options for choosing a student desktop that will meet your personal needs and wants. I'm going to start you off with
one major desktop manufacturer who sells college suitable desktops direct through their online store. Then I'll give you three more options for finding student desktops that fit your budget and meet your college or high school computing requirements.

Student desktops at Dell - The Inspiron desktop series from Dell is a great fit and affordable desktop computer for any high school or college student. The lowest-priced Inspiron model starts under $350 while all the other Inspiron versions start under$1000 as well. All Dell Inspiron desktops are customizable to meet the student desktop specifications I described further above. Once at the Dell Inspiron page you can select a new Inspiron desktop under 350 dollars or select a different Dell Inspiron desktop model, view all Dell Inspiron desktop computers at once, or narrow your Inspiron search via the left-hand navigation menu by processor.

More online stores to check for student desktops:
Newegg student desktop computers - Newegg is a major online desktop, laptop, and electronics store that stocks a wide-range of desktop computers from at least ten different manufacturers. Newegg sells mostly new desktops with prices starting under $300. The cheapest new desktop computer I have seen at Newegg went for $199. If you're looking for student desktops under 500 dollars, Newegg will accommodate you with a selection of about 40 desktops in that price range. Once at the Newegg site you can peruse the listings or narrow your student desktop search via the left-hand navigation menu by discount items, top sellers, refurbished, price, manufacturer, recommended usage, CPU type, or hard drive storage space. You can also use the "Sort By" drop-down box to rank the desktops by lowest price, highest price, best rating, most reviews, or best match. Most desktop computers at Newegg come without a monitor. If you want a monitor and perhaps a printer with your student desktop then I recommend checking out the desktop packages at Walmart and Best Buy.

Walmart student desktop computers - Walmart is another great store to find student desktops under 500 dollars. The cheapest new desktops with and without monitors go for under $350 at Walmart. Interestingly Walmart sometimes stocks a desktop priced at $199 which therefore falls into the $150 to $200 range. Once at the Walmart site you can use the "Sort by" drop-down box to rank the desktops in order according to lowest price, highest price, top sellers, or newest laptops. You can also use the additional drop-down boxes to specify various features including brand, processor, system RAM, and monitor size. You can also switch to a different price range via the menu on the left-hand side of the page.

Best Buy student desktop computers - Several desktop computers under 500 dollars are available at Best Buy as well. The cheapest new desktops with and without monitors go for under $350 at Best Buy. Once there click on "Desktops" then you can narrow your student desktop search via the left-hand navigation menu by selecting a recommended usage, desktops on sale, desktop package deals, brand name, price range, operating system, system memory, processor brand, hard drive size, or the latest desktop arrivals. After you narrow down your student desktop search you will be able to sort by lowest price, highest price, brand, best selling, or newest desktop arrivals.
