Hi everyone,

Get the pc installed with windows as you are studying and it would be easier for you to use their .net products

It wouldn't be BAD to buy an Apple, but it's not the dominant platform out there. (though OS X does come prepackaged with Perl). You'd probably be better off sticking with the PC platform, learning a bunch of skills, and later on apply those skills to Apples.
