If the only thing you're going to do is take online courses than just about anything will do. Most students at my school buy macbooks, but I think they're overpriced pieces of garbage (personal experience). If you're going to be carrying it around a lot, I wouldn't go bigger than a 14 inch screen. If it's mostly going to be sitting at home then I'd go bigger.

I like lenovo laptops. Most people that know what's up thinks they have the best typing keyboard for a laptop, they're competitively priced, and built well.

This one has good reviews on newegg. It isn't going to wow anybody with the speed, but it's a solid machine.

Don't get a Mac, you will pay too much for just wanting to do school work and surf the net.

Get a 14 inch laptop that has like 3GB of RAM and a dual processor.

Look into the Dell Inspiron series, the ones that are colorful.

HP's tend to get too hot so I wouldn't recommend that.

Look into Asus, they are good too. I have an Asus AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!

Go Mac! You'll never go back!

I recommend the MacBook Pro.
