Plus Laptops aren't really #1 choice for video editing programs to be used on. |

I love my mac! I'll never go back to PC! I just need to update the operating system and a few things to bring her up to date. but I'm not exactly a techie haha!
Get a mac! they're user friendly. the transfer is easy. don't let never touching a mac stop you from lookin at em. lol

i just built my friend a computer for his graphic designing.
went with AMD to save him some money but ended up costing him around 1600$
AMD Phenom II X6 black edition
8GB DDR3 1600
OCZ RevoDrive X2 SSD with 160GB and a read/write speed over 600MB/s
EVGA GeForce GTX 570
its nice to be able to open a 4gb picture in just a few seconds

We're talking $ tho. |
only problem is by next year ill have to redesign it because of new technology.

ASUS by far is the best ive seen. you pay for the product and not the name, and they dont pile in all the useless shit

My thoughts: i7 processor minimum of 1.06ghz 6GB system RAM Dedicated graphics card(Not integrated) I think Im looking for a ATI or NVIDIA with 256mb of ram or higher? DirectX 9 or 10 compatible graphics and sound These are actually system requirements for the editor I want(AVID) but I dont really know much about differences between hardware parts.  Wrong forum website yes, but maybe there are some killer computer geeks on here I am unaware of ?? |
