What mathematics programs will I use during my education?

[QUOTE="Dishsoap, post: 5465292, member: 500663"] Generally speaking, as long as you have a PC that is reasonably capable of doing everyday things, it will be fine for Mathematica/Matlab, which are the main tools used by physics majors, at least in my experience. You will probably add some additional programs on along the way, but most of these will be pretty lightweight I'd figure. There are always exceptions, especially if you choose to do research (you may want some more powerful software for simulations and such), but the typical physics major doesn't need a computer with any special thingies.
