just the best balance of performance, form factor, and keyboard imo.

I honestly don’t think it matters. Maybe some schools are different, but I don’t find myself doing a lot of heavy financial modeling for my classes. I have a Mac, and it has been totally fine for me. For the few occasions where I’ve needed to model (mostly for the investment club), I just use the desktops (or terminals) in our library. Just go for whatever you think is best for writing papers, watching Netflix, and browsing the web cause that’s gonna make up 99% of use.

This. If you are a Mac guy, then get a Mac. And you can always bootcamp or use parallels. It’s really simple.

Lenovo T490s works great for me. Good sized arrow keys versus comparables, intel 7, 16gb ram (meaning your CPU is less likely to crash from too many tabs), more than enough SSD, compatible with old and new usb ports, good battery + fast charge, etc. I’d wait for cyber monday if you can for some great deals on their website, they give you the option to select your desired features so as long you pick the right ones not the previous versions, you should be good. Price was $1100-1200 last year without tax so should be lower or the same with better specs this year.
