<human>:  I need to purchase a laptop for college. What should I look for in terms of specs?
<bot>: When considering the specs for a laptop for college, you should look at the processor speed, RAM, storage, battery life, and graphics capabilities. Make sure the processor is up to date and the RAM is large enough to handle the type of applications and programs you will use. Look for at least 8GB of RAM or more. Make sure storage is also sufficient; this will depend on the type of programs and applications you will be using. A larger storage size is always better, so look for at least 256GB or more. Battery life is also important; look for one that can last for at least 8 hours or more. Lastly, consider the graphics capabilities of the laptop; make sure it meets your needs.
