<p>Which is more common at Brown, Macs or PCs?
-What do students typically own?
-What type are in the libraries? (for file conversion, etc.)</p>
<p>Like everywhere else, most students own PCs, although a considerable number of people do have macs.</p>
<p>Most public computers at libraries are PCs also, although there are a limited number of public macs.</p>
<p>Mac… I would say Brown, being the liberal, hippy, ivy, have like overwhelming Mac users. i’d say around 50-50. And being a Mac user myself… I’d strongly suggest Mac… Macbook Pro beat any PC laptop…:)</p>
<p>Get a Sony FE or Dell Latitude or HP dv5000. Macs arent worth the extra $500-700 for comparable models.</p>
<p>Don’t get a Dell. Those things are POSes of the first order. Get an IBM/Lenovo.</p>
<p>PC = more headaches. </p>
<p>Mac = just works.</p>
