should I buy the MacBook M1, which is 256GB and 8GB of RAM, or should I buy Asus ZenBook 14, which is 1TB, 16GB of RAM? And it’s Ryzen 7 7730, but keep in consideration that my computer science college prefers us to use a Windows laptop, because many software they use are only for Windows, but I can download Parallels on Mac, so it’s no problem. So, which one should I pick? Also, the MacBook M1 is about $750, and the Asus is $900. So, the MacBook is $150 cheaper.

    I will probably go with the ASUS laptop. I do have an M1 Macbook and I use Parallels too but you can only use Windows ARM with parallels and it will be a problem if the software you’ll be using is not compatible with Windows ARM. I have some software that I use for work that crashes a lot of time in Parallels, and some software just doesn’t run at all.
