[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What you get an apple Mac Pro or a PC for an engineering student?[/quote] 1. check your DC's school for guidance on what to buy. Follow that guidance. Also, many colleges sell "bundles" with the laptop computer, standard applications, and on-campus support at discounted prices. 2. If DC's school has no guidance, then its your choice. Commonly used engineering software (e.g., MS Office, Matlab, Mathematica) generally work well on both MacOS or Windows. My STEM workplace is 2/3 MacOS and 1/3 Windows. Applications we use are available for and work well on both machines. Most computers at my work have 16GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. We have no problems with file compatibility. [/quote]
