I understand Case requires an HP Tablet computer which comes with textbooks and programs pre-installed, or on a CD ROM.

I already have a Macbook Pro, which also runs Windows using Parallels. I am all for trying new things, and of course WILL be buying the required tablet, but I am wondering whether I could potentially use my Mac as long as I purchase the required Tablet... Or would I be the one weirdo in class not using the HP? Is the HP's tablet capability often used by students to make handwritten notes, etc.?

Could the HP's pre-installed programs / texts, etc., be easily transferred (by me) to my Macbook, or would there be some kind of copyright block that would prevent having these on more than one computer?

Sorry for all the questions! Many thanks in advance.

You would be the only one using computer other than the Tablet, but a lot of people like to print and take notes or just take notes on plain papers... But, most people do use the tablet, because tablet feature really make it easy for us to take notes, but it's really a personal preference. Also, the programs install easily on other computers, although you can install up to only two computers at a time, so if you have a desktop, you have to make a choice.

Okay, thanks for the helpful reply, huk1985. :thumbup:

I'll probably try to wean myself off my Macbook, then, which has been my "comfort zone," heheh....
