HAHAHAHAHA no. Is it required to buy one through the store? Can't you get one on Amazon or NewEgg?

UPDATE


So My University computer store has changed supplier so the previous laptops are no longer available. The only worthwhile laptop is:


Apple MacBook Pro with 15in Retina Display

Intel Core i7 Processor (2GHz/3.20GHz)
Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks
8GB RAM
256GB Solid State Drive
15.4in Active Matrix TFT Colour LCD Retina Display
Intel Iris Pro Graphics
DDR3L SDRAM
Bluetooth 4.0
WiFi IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac

Would I be able to run CCD effectively through Bootcamp?

Thanks in advance
Last Edit
The processor and ram should run very well. I have no idea what a Intel Iris Pro is.

Intel Iris Pro is integrated video card. It's not suitable.

I was going too, but I tried running it on parallels (virtual windows) and it runs fine with everything on high

I pity your using OSX. Windows is just plain and simply better.
