<p>MBP! i dont know about mb but i know that you can run parallels on mbp, which allows for you to have a mac AND a pc in one. keep in mind that you will use your laptop more during your latter years, so you want one that will be able to sustain for 4+ years and wont break down (but macs really never do ). if your studio is completely hand done first year, youll still use your computer to go on the internet, watch movies, type papers for other classes, etc. but the mbp is more powerful than the mb, which is what youll need. it also has more memory upgrades available and thats really important; the design and CAD files that you will create eat up a lot of memory.</p>
