[QUOTE="BrianLachoreVPI, post: 1297534, member: 193366"] I'm not sure that anyone can really help with the "is it worth it" question. That answer is different for everyone depending on what's most important and what they can afford. However, given your major, it does seem likely that you'll at least need a copy of Windows running either on a Windows machine - or on the Mac using BootCamp or a virtualized environment. I can tell you that I just put Win 7 on my iMac using VMWare Fusion and am thrilled with how it runs. You can find some excellent deals in the Apple refurb store that make the cost delta a little more palatable. [/QUOTE]
