Students gain access to the campus network and It systems via approximately 2500 computers in RGA’s. In addition to this access the aim is to encourage students to increasingly use their own laptops or tablets. In line with this initiative competitive prices for laptops were negotiated by means of a country-wide student laptop project. The computers have been tested and approved by the IT-department of the SU and are therefore being recommended to students.
The products are well priced with a considerable discount on the fixed price list of some of the models. All models come standard with Windows 7 and Office 10 Pro – another saving of R1200-00.
Models ranging from entry-level to advanced – four each from both Acer and Lenovo – have been chosen. The specifications are equivalent per category and you can therefore easily choose the brand that suits your needs best.
You can order your laptop online directly from the manufacturers by following the links below:

Studente kry reeds toegang tot die kampusnetwerk en IT-stelsels d.m.v. ongeveer 2500 rekenaars in RGAs. Addisioneel tot hierdie fasiliteite in RGAs word voorsien dat studente toenemend hul eie draagbare skoot- of tabletrekenaars na die kampus sal bring. In lyn met hierdie inisiatief is daar deur ’n landswye studente-skootrekenaarprojek mededingende pryse vir skootrekenaars beding. Hierdie rekenaars is getoets en goedgekeur deur die US se IT-afdeling en word aanbeveel vir studente.
Die produkte is billik geprys met `n aansienlike afslag op die vasgestelde pryslys vir sommige modelle. Alle modelle word standaard uitgereik met Windows 7 en Office 10 Pro – nog `n besparing van R1200-00.
Twee rekenaarhandelsmerke, Acer and Lenovo is gekies en elke verskaffer het vier verskillende opsies: Van intreevlak tot gevorderd. Die spesifikasies van die vier modelle is dieselfde by beide verskaffers. Jy kan dus besluit watter handelsmerk en model jou die beste pas.
Jy kan jou skootrekenaar direk by die verskaffers koop deur te kliek op die onderskeie skakels.
