    A MBP 15 Pro (Retina) running OSX/Windows in a dual boot is a pretty nice combination. Apple make fine hardware but not everyone is a fan of OS X.

    Alternatively, a new XPS 15 w/ the QHD display or a high-end Dell Precision or something like a HP ZBook would be at the same level of quality with possibly better spec.

    Ok thanks for that . I'm interested in the mac book pro retina display and have been told nothing but good about it and ATM there is 100€ off it too which is good :) but I just want some that had everything I need and more plus no worries about virus ect so that's why wanted to know is it worth going for as want something to last me a good few years?
