Don't get a MacBook. Why run Windows on a MacBook when you are paying a premium for the OS itself? While the more popular engineering software supports MacBook as well, there is no guarantee you an get a crack version of it running on Mac OS. In the end, you have to resort to the workaround of running Windows on it. BTW, if you join Nottingham, you'll have free copies of Windows 7, Vista, XP etc.
I think you'll use MATLAB only for foundation - but if you intend to bring it to the Netherlands in the future, you'll need to make sure what they use over there. For foundation level MATLAB, any new laptop will do - even the low-voltage CPU you see in super thin laptops will suffice - but if you want future proof it, get something powerful.
Why students get free copies of Windows? Office too?
I found it in the HP Singapore Online Store, but when I went to Singapore yesterday I can't find it (only can find Envy4).
Is it available in Malaysia?
I believe it does. You can go to the Garage Sales, Notebook section in lowyat.net to check for laptops. I am in a shopping of laptop as well and maybe can offer some advice? If you want something portable, something that big (in term of length and width) won't do justice. It may not be heavy but it's hard to put in a bag, hold in your hand etc. You need to look for something more petite (smaller, not thinner) but you'll sacrifice screen estate (smaller screen, maybe less immersive movie viewing experience). What do you want apart form enough performance for university work?

hahaha, big screen is what I want, that's why I chose that xD.
I see. Get a full-powered laptop equipped with graphics cards and FHD screen la..
any recommendations? xD. I don't want anything that's heavy though, big is okay, heavy is no okay, lol. still waiting for envy6, it fits my bill, in terms of what I need and what I have, hahaha. and it would be better if Mayuyu signed it (hey HP, can u hear me?! xD).

Well, trade-off of being lighter is to have weaker muscles. So it's your call ultimately. Also depends on your budget I believe.
Wow! I just applied for my visa today xD. Still don't know what to do about my accommodation, on-campus didn't reply me, going to look at a room in TTS2 tomorrow (or the day after). Yeah I know, haha, but I need to buy another copy of Windows 7 (don't know if "Indonesian technique" aka buy the pirated version is applicable in Malaysia xD), and Windows performance on Mac is not really great (I've tried), battery life decreased by a lot and the system goes on fire xD.
Lol I got my accomodation offer and paid the deposits and havent heard from them since Hopefully they have not given my room away. On a happier note freshers week seems to have some exciting activities lined up: http://www.facebook.com/FreshersWeek20122013

This one? I have contacted them before. Bad experience. After they collecting money, they will not care about tenants anymore ( Just my personal feeling ). I rather finding those student agents in UNMC since they are same age with us and sometimes they can know what we need. Rental is cheaper also.
