Should I get an iPad or a gaming laptop for college?
I think its time to replace my old, outdated by the time I got it, HP Pavilion. Its served me well through school, but its time to get something a bit faster (HP is HDD).
I am a music student, so originally I was thinking about getting a 9th Gen iPad that I could use for typing notes, writing out notes on staff paper, and as an e reader for various sheet music so I don't have to print things out so much and keep up with tons of music folders.
On the other end, I recently found a walmart near me with a heavily marked down Acer Nitro with a 3050ti. I already have a windows desktop (which ironically has a worst graphics card than this laptop) with a 500GB SSD and all the perks of windows. I can easily type notes on it, and I will be able to more easily deal with the things I have to print for my job. I would also be able to game some on the weekends without having to move my whole desktop setup home when I visit.
However, the downside of not being able to view sheet music is still there, and is frustrating, but since the two would be similar in cost once I got everything I needed for the ipad to be comparable.
What do y'all think? iPad or gaming laptop?

I’m always on the lookout for these. The only prominent ones I know of are the Jackbox series, skribbl, and Gartic Phone. Surely there must be more?
I know these aren’t the typical “gaming” games, but hey, different games for different situations.
