Is it a bad idea to transition from a PC to a Macbook in my first year of college?

<p>Macs are generally double the price. Not worth it in my opinion - I use Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.04 LTS for both my desktop and laptop.</p>

<p>I have used a Dell Latitude E6400 for about 2-3 years now. It’s holds up to everyday abuse. I usually just toss it in my car. Would you be able to do that to a $2000 jewel?</p>
