It is too bad you cannot afford one.  I can't either, and I make oodles
of big bucks per year (which I spend on car, mortgage, three kids, etc).

Being a student has nothing to do with it.  I've seen lots of students
shell out this much and more for PS/2's and NeXTs.  Look at it as an
investment, or a semester's tuition.

Buy one now.  Figure out what product will be hot about the time you
graduate, a structured draw program or maybe a sales/marketing package
for the Real Estate business.  Start working on it now, piggy backing
your course projects onto it (assuming you have the right major).

About the time you graduate, you'll be ready to spend two years in the
attic putting the finishing touches on it, and eating beans.  Then you'll
get rich.
