Insofar as the incoming freshmen are primarily artists and musicians, not engineers and scientists, I’m not surprised.

Well, as a computer engineer who has been involved building and running some of world’s largest and fastest supercomputers, I’d have to say I love my Mac.

Not at all. Fact is my Mac is faster at the important stuff (like Mathematica) than any of my fellow engineers and researchers. When they want stuff cranked, they come to me and my Mac.

Actually, engineers now favor MACS. They can run windows OS on a MAC, so they have the software they want on a very well designed and durable platform.

“Insofar as” I have created, developed and hold numerous patents in non-destructive testing...I love my MacBook Air.
