<p>I’m an incoming freshman (Computer Science Major though), and I agree - the prices aren’t attractive. If you found the prices to be too high, I would not invest in anything Apple related, as they are notably expensive. I’d look into Lenovo or ASUS laptops with 4th gen. Intel i7 processors. i5 processors would suffice as well. </p>
