We suggest that you review the academic bundles for your potential major. Any of the options offered by the JMU bookstore should meet your basic computing needs, but some departments have additional computing recommendations. The models listed in the table below are the computer systems most often recommended by departments. Be sure to check that your department doesn't suggest additional hardware or software upgrades. If you have additional questions about these recommendations, please contact the department directly or the JMU Bookstore Computer Program.
Some departments make a single recommendation.
Other departments make multiple recommendations - Standard and Performance . Note that one department's Standard may be another department's Performance so be sure to visit the JMU Bookstore Computer Program web site for the actual configurations for each computer system. The links in the table above and in the list below will take you to appropriate JMU Bookstore Computer Program page.
