[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depending on major, is there any advantages to having a windows based laptop? I am not sure how much students need to use excel or Bloomberg terminal as an undergraduate but I find it profoundly easier and faster in Windows. [/quote] A Mac laptop *with an M-series chip* is much faster than a Windows machine would be. This is directly why Microsoft is pushing “Windows on ARM” instead of the Intel x86 CPU (at CostCo these Windows ARM laptops usually say SnapDragon). Which is easier to use depends entirely on the person. Someone familiar with Mac will find it easier to use. A long time Windows user will find that easier to use. A little kid with no computer experience finds Mac easier to use — there were actual controlled studies on this years ago.[/quote]
