You could always buy and older laptop from say Newegg for short money and go with a Linux distro.Like the Mac you can boot multiple OSs but its much easier to do with certain Linux distros.
Not trying to start anything here as I've taken on a full assault in the past for suggesting Linux.Just offering an option,nothing more.

If time allows , look through the Mac Store online and wait for the Mac Book Pro of your choice . Listings of the day are limited but change daily.
Good Luck
