For engineering, I'd go for a PC.
HOWEVER, I'm a huge Mac fan. I run VMware Fusion on my Mac for those rare instances that I need to run a program in Windows. If your son really wants a Mac (and loves the iLife programs), he can install Bootcamp/VMware/Parallels and buy a copy of Windows. In fact, the Lehigh tech services may offer Windows for a nominal fee since they likely have a campus-wide license with Microsoft.
