Credit Cards

I'm thinking about getting a credit card because I really need a new laptop before school starts but I don't have the money to pay up front. I know they'll be interest and all of that but hopefully my financial aid comes in on time. I also need it just in case something happens.

But what are some things I should look for when I apply for a credit card? I'm debating just getting a Staples credit card just so I can get my laptop or one through PNC since I just updated my account to the Performance account. I have decent credit, I think.

Check the Interest rate and make sure there is no annual fee
