best laptops for virtual internship

What laptops would you recommend summer analysts purchase for their summer internships? I currently use a MacBook pro for school, but because of its lack of excel compatibility, I am looking to purchase one for my internship. I am looking for a good quality laptop that is fairly affordable.

 

would a macbook + parallels suffice?? really don't want to drop a few hundred bucks on a mediocre pc i will only be using for 5 weeks..

 

my bank asked interns to indicate what laptops we have at home without any mention of sending us company issued laptops,. so i am not positive we are gonna get anything from banks

 

Are banks not planning on using on Parallels/Citrix for the SAs? I'd highly doubt we can directly download stuff to our regular machines given we might be handling sensitive data so a Virtual Desktop would be the easiest solution? And the virtual desktop would surely be running a Windows OS interface.

I say this as a mac owner since that is what I assume will happen. If not probably will run Windows via bootcamp (my uni offers a free copy of windows) since I do not want to blow a few hundred bucks on a new laptop.
