Hopkins Technology Store

If you're coming back to campus this Fall, you'll notice something a little different about the Krieger Lab in the first floor of Krieger Hall. Now the front of the lab hosts the brand new Hopkins Technology Store. The Hopkins Technology Store serves as an on-campus Apple retailer, complete with Apple-certified student staff. In addition to Apple products, the store also carries a line of Dell computers and computer accessories.

The computers on sale at the Hopkins Technology Store are part of the Mobile Computing Program (MCP), meaning they're available to Hopkins students, faculty, and staff at discounted rates. I know a lot of freshmen buy computers through the MCP, but it's not a bad option for returning or graduate students either. One of the great things about the MCP is that computers bought through it come with a three-year warranty and you can have them serviced on campus as well as get a loaner laptop to use while yours is being fixed. I used this when I had a laptop I bought through MCP, and it was a huge help.

You can check out all the products Hopkins Technology Store offers on its website and also become a fan on Facebook to keep up-to-date about the latest products and deals.
