Can I use a Apple MacBook/iBook/Powerbook instead of a IBM/PC compatible laptop?
1. You will be on your own for software and hardware support. The MFE Program & Haas Computing Services only provides “best effort” support for Apple notebooks. 2. You will also be called upon to do team projects, and cross-platform files may be a problem or at least an added burden for you to reformat. MFE recommends you purchase your laptop in the U.S. Most laptops only come with a 1-year warranty. If you require warranty service, you typically ship the laptop back to the country in which it was purchased. By purchasing your laptop in the U.S. avoid any delays in receiving warranty service while in the MFE program.
