Druna Skass Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Wasn't sure where to put this... Anyway, I'm getting a new laptop but I'm not sure what kind to get. I need one with a lot of RAM and I can get online with it. So guys, I ask, what laptop should I get?
BoBe-Patt Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 well, me being a mac lover, i'd buy the new 17" titanium. I love that thing. It beautiful. If I had to get a pc laptop, I would probably get the toshiba one, I don't know too much about it, but it looks nice!! and powerful too! what's your budget anyway?
Captain of the SDF-1 Macross Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Here's my opinions on laptop computers (I too look to get one but it means stopping to buy Valks for a while): Best: IBM, Toshiba, Apple. Avoid: Dell, Compaq, Sony. Also, do you wish to use a laptop for basic stuff (e-mail, DVD playback, word processing, etc.) or for heavy number-crunching (CGI animation, video editing, DVD-R burning, etc.)?

I'm at a toss-up between an iBook or a 12" PowerBook.

I need something that can crunch numbers, like maybe handle AutoCAD Lite or at the most Inventor. And I can spend about 2 grand.
SuperOstrich Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Toshiba. Get one that uses the Geforce4 Go graphics chip. It's about the best you can get in a reasonably priced laptop. And I'm really sorry to do this, but we don't allow off-topic posts. Feel free to PM the people that have responded thus far. I'm confident they'll help you out, myself included.
