| Evelynn Pennycook 09.12.2012 | Intel i7 processors (especially 3rd gen) are great for running multiple and/or demanding applications. Does not matter so much what company assembled the laptop so much as the processor, ram, and hard-drive. Both windows and apple make great operating systems. |
| Werner Bile 08.12.2012 | my mistake. I assumed from him saying "I got an HP ENVY" that he already had it, but you're right. |

| Collen Materia 07.12.2012 | I have an HP Envy Beats edition. 8gb RAM, i7 quadcore processor. Exclusively used for DJing, so the thing never goes online. I run Traktor, have been running it for over a year, maybe two. Never had a problem playing out with it. I believe in this year and a half-two year time span I had two episodes of traktor freezing whilst in my little studio. I play a lot in my little spot, so only 2 freezes with the amount it gets played on, I thought was pretty damn good so far. |
| Valene Guasp 04.12.2012 | I7s in Windows pcs usually have issues with the SL1 and TTm57 something to do with usb 1.1 connectivity. It will be fine with any of the newer Serato interfaces which are usb 2.0 |
| Alyce Southey 04.12.2012 | I run a i5 hp laptop with traktor 2.5 no problem. Ive ran ableton and traktor at same time and no probs with cpu. Youll be fine. Not sure how well the new windows 8 is taking to our softwares tho. |
| Wilma Quinty 04.12.2012 | If I remember correctly back when I was researching for laptops that particular processor does not play well with serato. Especially if you plan to do video. I went with a mbp. |
| Precious Pequignot 04.12.2012 | It should run the software fine. My 1+ yr old HP Pavilion is doing great, no need to return it! |
