Starting school in the fall, Mac vs ASUS
Hi everyone, I'm starting a 3+2 program in the Fall, Physics & Engineering dual degree. I've been offered a MacBook Pro for my HS graduation gift. My boyfriend says I should just look ahead to the engineering part of my schooling 4 years from now and get a solid gaming laptop now so I'll be able to integrate with the programs I'll have to be using. I admit I'd rather have the Mac now, but I know he's right about what I'll need in future. Is what he's suggesting necessary for the upcoming few years though? If asked I can provide the details of the laptop he's suggesting. Any advice appreciated, thanks!
