Gwapo,
It doesn't really matter which platform you choose. I bought a Mac Air prior to starting school and it's been a great purchase thus far. You'll take all of your exams on your own computer via a special browser that's available for either platform. If you choose a Mac I would suggest you buy the Microsoft Office suite just for guaranteed compatibility with the instructors' notes. (You can purchase it from the campus library for a discount once you're a student.) As far as needing a CD/DVD drive for school, it hasn't been an issue yet; thumb drives and Dropbox work just fine.
All the best to you in August.

Any RRNAs from TWU? Can you share tips on where to live in fort worth? What laptop are you, or most students are using, PC or macbook pro/air? Thanks. I heard it's finals week, good luck.
