No, you can get a PC for 1/3 of the price, and there are versions of Mac that run on PCs now quite well if you know where to look. (PirateBay, for example).

Yep, you can get a cheap Windows PC for 1/3 the price of a Mac. And you get exactly what you paid for, which is a cheap PC. Buy a well built quality Windows Laptop and the price difference between it and a MacBook Pro all but disappears. You see, Apple builds their own computers and they build no cheap versions. Windows does not build computers they only build software and have no control over what that software is installed on. I cannot explain to anyone who has not owned an Apple computer just how great they are. I can only tell you that as an owner of Windows computers for 10 years who switched to Mac 5 years ago, I would not trade my 5 year old Mac for a brand new Windows PC. Why would you want to purchase OSx and then install it on a Windows PC with the cheap hardware you find on cheap Windows PC. If you want a well built computer you might as well buy a MacBook Pro in the first place. Look on Apple's website at their Refurbished models. You save quite allot and get an almost new Mac with full warranty.

Which MacBook is best for university students?

I personally think the 13" Macbook Pro without Retina display at $1199 is an excellent choice. But if you have the money, and feel it is worth it, you can opt for the Retina display for an additional $300. I would not recommend the 15" Macbook Pro as I feel it is just not worth the extra $600 or $1,000 for the retina display model. With the student discount you can get the 13" Macbook Pro for $999 which would be my choice.

So, if you need a true workhorse laptop and want to stay in the Apple environment, this MacBook Pro is well worth the money. To be honest, even if you're not a fan of Apple, this computer is worth considering if you need a powerful laptop.

Should i get the MacBook white or the MacBook Pro?

Personally, I would get a macbook pro. I have one (the 13 inch one) and it is really good. I really didn't like the macbook white being - white and I didn't like the shape either. I know that macbook pro's are more expensive, but you could use a student card to get a discount and if not I still think that they are worth it. But that's my opinion.
