A 400$ refurbished thinkpad is going to break the floor before it stops working :P but of course they aren't new

Truth. 

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

Unless your classes use some sort of Apple only language like Objective C or Swift, Windows for maximum compatibility. If you need to work on Linux, use VirtualBox and setup a VM.

 

However, it may not matter in the end because any competent school with a Computer Science major should have a computer lab with all of the tools you need to use available to you.

I have a blog! And a list of guides I've posted

Now the question, which operating system isthe best to start programming and with which one I will have hopefully no problems with the compiler etc

Windows 10. Visual Studio is awesome for both C++ and C#, Python etc. work well as well. 

Write in C.
