<p>What is the ideal computer for a student at Wharton?
If i purchase a Macbook/MacbookPro, will that be able to do everything I need?</p>
<p>Well I think they do use some windows programs…
Speaking of which, if I have a macbook, but bring my windows desktop (XP) to school as well, will that be enough? I’m definitely feeling the macbook, they are just much better quality than windows ones.</p>
<p>You need windows for Wharton, but there are enough ways to put Windows on a mac, use another computer, or use the computer labs that you’ll be totally fine.</p>
<p>It’s funny, I expected to see more Macbooks when I visited yesterday. I saw one hippie looking dude with an MBP and that was it. Maybe I wasn’t looking hard enough or something lol.</p>
<p>Is installing windows on a MacBook incredibly hard for someone who had never touched a mac before?</p>
<p>^No…in fact it’s possible to designate windows the primary OS if you’re desperate for a Mac, but need to default to Windows b/c of compatibility issues.</p>
