I know many people have asked this question, but I'd like specifics. Namely, learning a new operating system (Mac) scares me, and Windows Vista does too. I'd like to know what brand/model/extras I should invest in for college.
I will be a freshman at The Ohio State University studying in the biological sciences, maybe majoring in veterinary medicine, pathology, or molecular genetics (aka probably an 8 year program).
I'm not a big fan of the keyboards on laptops, along with the many problems they tend to have (overheating, theft, etc) but a desktop will take up much more room.
My final concern is the question; PC v. Mac. I understand that Macs have very few viruses and the system is relatively easy to learn, but my biggest concern is OSU doesn't have a strong tech support for Mac users. Also, what is the dish on Windows Vista. I've heard some horror stories, will it/has it gotten any better?
