I am starting med school in the fall. I currently have no computer. I am looking between these two dramatically different laptop options.
I guess you could say I am more of a PC user but I also use Mac computers from time to time at work and they seem pretty solid.
I guess the big question is how much do you think the digitizer pen on the surface would help in med school? I was a big handwritten notes kind of guy in undergrad, I imagine in med school I will do more typing but could see the utility in having the pen option. It seems really cool for annotating power points and PDFs and whatnot; but is it worth it?
****also windows 10 seems like it will be a lot better than widows 8, which windows 8 is one of my major draws to go with a Mac.
I am willing to drop about $1300 max seeing as I only buy a computer once every 5-10 years to begin with.
What do yall think?
