Son is going to Iowa. I am sure either Mac or Windows computers will work, but curious what works best with what the University uses/supports, or whether students can get computers or software cheaper through the University than what we can get at Best Buy or a similar store. Also, what is recommended these days in terms of attributes (RAM, storage capacity, etc.)? I haven't looked into any of this in a long time, as I just use what my job provides. TIA!
