[QUOTE="thomas998, post: 1011099, member: 111388"] Considering that you can do a little tweak on the Mac side so that it can access the Windows NTFS drive, but can't do anything like that on the Windows side to access the macside (unless you buy special software)... I would strongly suggest that if you only have 250GB to play with that you spread most of it to the Windows side... Now while I have only had two Mac running with bootcamp I must also say that I've experienced corruption problems with the Mac partition several times that required me to reformat, never had any problems with the NTFS partition... so based on my own experience I tend to think the NTFS is a little less problem prone than the Mac's. I do wonder though why you would want to buy a Mac when the school you are going to specifically tells you to get a windows machine.... You will at the very least need to get a decent mouse to go with it, because a mac one button touch pad is a pain to use with windows applications where you have to continually use multiple fingers to do a right mouse click.
