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.

Good point. I would guess the newer versions of each are becoming more compatible as they progress. I work with a bunch of old timers who surprisingly use Macs and I couldn't tell you how often I open one of their documents on my Dell and it's allllll messed up. I started just telling them to send me .rtfs
