XPS 13 without question if you are going for a laptop.

If you're making music or similar, Mac for sure.

I prefer Windows on any other topic though.

I've actually had them both and the difference is not that big in performance, they both got some flaws but I would just go with the cheapest one. Using a MacBook Pro now though.

The touch seems sort of useless with the keyboard

[Krew]

If you want a device that sort of keeps it value after a few years than get a Mac. If you want actual performance, get the XPS.

Im leaning towards the MacBook. I am wondering is there an update coming out soon as the last update was a year ago.

Im sure they will be updated the macbooks soon. It depends on how fast you need it. On March 21st Apple is releasing some new stuff so i'd wait it out.

I would definitely recommend the Macbook Pro 13" for college. Not the 15" because it is too big. Get the newer retina model its nice sleek and does the job! Good luck bro.

Do you think they will be releasing new MacBook pros though?

The XPS has a 6th gen, 3.2GHz core i7, compared to the Macbook's turboboost to 3.1GHz. And I found my touchcreeen useful in situations where I need to take visual notes like drawing diagrams and such, theres great software that makes use of the touch feature for this.

I'd lean towards the MacBook Pro. I also have one.. & use it for school and I love it. I've done a little research and not many people are happy with the XPS and as you said earlier the touchscreen is useless.

MBP is reliable and great.. I use mine for regular school shit plus I'm running 3 VM's on it for different classes and still runs really smooth.

All these HF fags going with the bad product.

I use my MacBook Pro and am also in college, and I do a lot of video editing and graphic design and runs flawlessly. Doesn't make a sound either while multitasking.

Plus Apple seems to be the go to for college kids because of the design, how it goes right along with the iPhone, and many other reasons.

This too. The 13" retina is perfect for me, I've seen others with the 15" and it just seems too big.

If I do go for the Macbook I will definitely be getting the 13". The 15" is too big and too expensive.
