I like my Surface Pro, but I would recommend getting an external monitor to connect to. Imo, it is very small for doing a lot of schoolwork. I got one before grad school and ended up getting a cheap $300 HP laptop to write papers and stuff.
And I would not go with a Mac, personally. Regardless of what some people will tell you, they still have compatibility issues with Microsoft Office programs.

I haven't had too many issues with my Macbook Pro 2012 and the newest version of office. I think Office runs better on microsoft platforms, but thats a given.
I also upgraded my harddrive to a SSD and upgraded the ram to 16gbs. Things been running like it was bought yesterday.
I think computers in general have all caught up to each other. It really depends on the specs, like poster posted above.
I would make sure to get a Solid State Drive (SSD) and a minimum 8gbs of Ram.
