Next year I will be going back to school (took a year off). S I will be needing a laptop, I am not sure if I should buy it this year on black friday or wait till back to school sales in Aug of next year. Opinions? I will be taking programming if that matters at all.

I would look at getting something on Cyber Monday/Black Friday. What is your budget?

 

I assume you are looking for good battery life, like a 13inch screen and maybe an SSD?

So would it be worth it to buy this year or wait till next year? As for specs I would like a 12-13 inch screen and a removable 2.5 inch drive so I can upgrade to an ssd myself sine manufactures charge way too much for laptops with them.

Budget is not even part of the question. It does not matter. I am asking if it is worth buying now and only using it a bit until next year or not. So budget does not matter at all. Need a better canned response.
