If budget is not an issue, either a PC or Mac laptop computer can be chosen. On top of that, if the budget is less than $2000, a PC laptop is highly recommended as most mainstream PC laptop products at that price level allow one to run most software programs smoothly. The department highly recommended PC for classroom use though. Making the decision to purchase a PC (Windows) or Mac (Apple) laptop computer depends a lot on the student's budget and personal computing preferences. Please make sure that you are referencing the correct configuration requirements for the appropriate operating system.

Also, please be aware that 64 bit systems have a higher requirement for computer hardware than 32 bit systems. It is highly recommended that students purchase a laptop computer with a high level of performance to ensure their laptop computer will not become outdated during their time as a student. Meeting the minimum requirement only allows one to run the software at the lowest level of performance and you may not be able to run other software programs efficiently at the same time. When purchasing a laptop computer, students should refer to the system requirements provided by the software producers to ensure that the recommended system requirements are met. It is also the student's responsibility to update and maintain their laptop computer so that they can continue to run these software programs without problems for three or more years. It is the student's responsibility to ensure that their laptop computer can run the most recent versions of software programs required by the department smoothly and efficiently.
