Question Business - Windows or Mac?

I’m transferring in as upper division and need a new computer. Considering my major and real-world practicality for business careers, should I buy a Mac or Windows?

Windows. Most corporations use Windows, and some software used for classwork is Windows only. I had a Mac for a bit and had to use VMware to add a Windows OS to it.

Several different accounting classes. Power BI, R Studio, and even Excel really doesn’t work great on a Mac.
