1. You need software specifically designed for a mac2. You are already invested in the apple eco-system3. You want the most stylish computer on the market
Unless a software package (not just a version of it) it’s typically better to go with a windows…[Read more]

This one is the lowest I would go for your price point:Acer Aspire V3-772G-9656 17.3-Inch Laptop…[Read more]
