What Kind of Device Should I Bring?

Should you buy a new device (laptop/desktop) or use what you have?

Here are the minimum specifications for what will work well at Ross and the U:

Operating SystemWindows 10 or Mac OS 12 Monterey
ProcessorIntel i7 or higher
Screen13″ or larger
Memory16GB or higher
Storage256GB or higher
Ethernet10/100/1000 (Gigabit)
Wireless802.11 ac

If you’re buying new, think ahead. Consider purchasing a device with the power that will continue to serve you well in the future. A device with a faster processor and more memory than you currently need will remain useful for years.
