Upgrading Computer For Summer

Internship at BB has turned to all online for the shortened time and doing all I can to ensure FT offer. I'm running a Surface Pro 2 with two external monitors. Sometimes when running more than two large Excel models and talking on MS Teams it gets pretty slow at current gig and is definitely annoying when on a call with Senior and they ask to run another situation while on the call. Is it time/worth it to upgrade? They are paying us for the full 10 weeks and no NYC rent needed after all...

Just got the new 13 inch MacBook Pro with 10th gen, 16 gb ram ($1799, $1699 with student discount). New keyboard design is awesome again. Really great computer if you’re looking for a Mac.
