I do a great deal of computer consulting and the Mac is a good, stable platform. It’s easy to use.
You can always install Windows 7 or 8.1 inside the mac via Parallels software (I do this very thing). You DO need at least 8 GB RAM, though.
The clients I shift over to Mac are very happy and do not call much at all...
FYI, Apple has a wonderful refurbished site (as new factory warranty) you might look there:

PS Don’t overlook the Mac Mini - it’s a gem!
Best!
p>Take the following steps to install Windows on your Mac using a Microsoft Windows installation DVD or an .iso disc image file.
Parallels Desktop for Mac does not include Microsoft Windows. If you don’t have a Windows copy, you can purchase Windows 10 from the Microsoft Online Store:
Note: visit this page if you need help to choose Windows 10 edition: Home or Pro.
After the purchase please visit the Download Windows 10 page to create your own installation media and the Windows 10 page to learn more about upgrade from previous Windows versions.
For earlier versions of Windows, please refer to retail stores or authorized online resellers, including Amazon.com.
