so basically u guys are saying laptops distracted u more than helping u?

 

[sunny]

that depends.....some people watch dvds on laptops day in day out at uni, and thats all I've seen them do with laptops.

I do actually spend a great deal of time doing assignments and work on my laptop during breaks.

Yeah, some people actually use their laptops.

I type up notes in certain lectures (obviously not maths ones). It's good for working on assignments in breaks. It's not really that useful for tutorials.

But you could just use a CSE computer (if you can find one). I'm sure USyd has a similar COMP lab setup ...

I don't need to - I usually look for a computer when I haven't brought my laptop to uni and I just want to surf, not do any work..
