In the market for a laptop

So, comming next winter quarter, I plan on getting a laptop. I have researched for many hours on different kinds of laptop brands, models, specs, etc.... and came to the conclusion that many, if not all, the features I want come in the apple powerbook. Now, I am a 3rd year Electrical Engineering student, and have concerns for the compatability between the programs used in this major and mac laptops.

Is there anybody in here, who is an EE major, who uses apple machines? If so, what programs are you using as alternatives? Or, are you just running Virtual PC, and running the programs that way? In general, can it be done w/o the headaches I'm afraid of being involved?

If anybody can jump in here and give me some insight, it would greatly help.
