It is faster than I expected. The time it takes to turn on and shutdown surprised me. As for using it for homework, it should do you fine. I use word, excel and one note and have been pleased so far.

definitely! its perfect for a college student. its portable and pretty efficient. it runs windows 8 OS so you need to consider that in respect of applications you want to run (windows 8 compatible versions may be required)

Laptop speed is enough for any Office applications with Wi-Fi. Sure, it meets academic needs of 6th grader in US.

Well this is not a laptop or desktop with a hard drive, but the memory is great for I think 2gb, it comes with, my son uses it in college for note taking along with Office(trial version) that you have to buy to keep it working. But its very fast email surfing the web. I added a blue tooth keyboard and leather case, my son loves it. You can store many things on it by using more then one memory card 64. Screen picture display is perfect.

3.5 HRS tops. That, and the clumsy track pad are the only downsides to this rig. I would still recommend this laptop to anyone who needs these specs at an affordable price. Can't beat it.

Good question - you will have to scoot - it doesn't hang over enough for me to recommend it using a laptop. If your writing, reading, or eating breakfast...sure.

I agree with Gilberto. No problems with speed or writing. It is a good machine.

It is fast for a grinder this small. It still works very well after several years of service. I have made sausage and venison hamburger as well as other small tasks.

it took about 1 hr. I am told that the internal drive although it reads fast is not a good writter. Many recommend buying a 2 tb external drive that is high rpm's and it works better when hooked to the usb3 port..

Reads @ 19.5 Mb/s. Have not performed write test. Mostly use it for RasPi OS. Works well enough for that. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure because I don't use it for speed. I do know it works great for my basic purpose. Sorry I can't help you more.

Sorry I can't answer as I bought it for my son who doesn't live with us. He had said previously that it does all he needs as an Enginerring Student at university.

If you are going to use this for school, this is hands down the easiest, fastest machine out there. I have a very advanced TI that I use for all other math, cal, finite, stats, etc... but this was PERFECT for finance. I would recommend this to anyone who is going to take a finance class or is in finance.

I'm a grad student as well. I purchased office from amazon when I purchased the computer. This computer does everything I need to it for school. It's fast and reliable. I'm so happy I bought it.
