What is the Bison Laptop program?

The Bison Laptop Program is a complete solution to the perplexing dilemma of deciding what computer an incoming student should bring to Bucknell. It is designed to meet the diverse computing needs of the students by offering outstanding choices with terrific value. Our Bison Laptop program offers these advantages for the incoming or current student:

  • Expedited support at the Tech Desk
  • Bucknell special  pricing for Dells and Apple's educational price discounts for Macs
  • On site parts for quick turnaround times (Dell only)
  • Bucknell-configured image that can be quickly restored (Dell only)
  • Apple pre-loaded software includes iLife 08
  • Certified technicians for fast service
  • Loaner laptops for program participants
  • Solid machines that our tech students regularly see and support
  • Free shipping for Dells and Macs
 

Why use the Bison Laptop program?

When looking at a potential laptop, look at the whole picture, not just the lowest cost or the glossiest ad. Our Dell laptops offer Dell's Complete Care and  full technical support,  as well as solid business-level hardware and specifications that will work for you over the long haul. Our Apples have long been known for their ease of use and resistance to spyware and viruses.

Bucknell's Bison Laptop program offers all of this for your four years here. We're proud to say that Bucknell's laptop program is one of the most complete programs among all of its peer institutions!
