Laptop recs for uni? (asking for a friend)

Looking for a laptop for a law student, preferably with a stylus, can also work as a tablet (but not chromebook or Mac because the uni uses Microsoft -- can you use microsoft on a Mac?)

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

You can use microsoft on a mac

And on a chromebook - but is more limited

Nice, cuz I got a handed down Mac for uni myself
I think the Lenovo Yoga 7 would be good for your friend. You can use a stylus with it and it’s a mid range machine that can handle powerful apps but can be used various ways and is lightweight.
