Jun 02, 2011 Mac users love Macs. PC users tend to prefer PCs simply because it’s what they are used to. Whichever way a student goes, their computer is probably the most important piece of equipment they will use for college and in the long run it doesn’t matter which you pick as long as it fits your college.
I'm an incoming college freshman and I'm going to buy my first Macbook. My concerns are: I'll probably use Microsoft Office for compatibility purposes with my classmates and professors ( so I'll likely juggle between Windows and OS then) 5-8 open internet tabs for researching. I might download some movies though not that many because I only watch occasionally. But my biggest concern is not having enough storage space. Is 128 gb enough for a student like me? Or do I need a bigger storage space? I'm choosing between, an 11' Macbook Air (256 gb), 13' Macbook Air (128 gb) and a 13' Macbook Pro (non-retina) I won't download music because I already have an iPhone and I'm not into gaming so I also won't download games. So what's the best Macbook for me? :)
