| Angelica Kargel 17.02.2010 | IMHO Aluminum Macbook Pros are unbeatable. The hardware its self is actually all high end (hitachi etc hd's) and the case is spot on perfect. Not to forget the super nice screens, long lasting battery, lit up keys.... And that replacement/protection plan... firewire... specs obviously depend on which one you buy... The whole OSX vs MS debate is kind of pointless to me, owning a mb right now after 14 years of MS I still don't really care which to use. The only downside of a Macbook Pro is the $. But then again, one of these things can outlast the competition and you can get like 4 years out of them. |
| Maxwell Bonifas 15.02.2010 | i dread to believe i believe the running total right now is about 4000 euros :eek: |

| Giselle Kawalec 13.02.2010 | the new HP DV6 -DV8 series are awesome cheap laptops! they are fast.. good build.. many options.. personally i am going to get a dv7 (17inch screen) with the 720 i7, 8 gig of 1333ram 2x500g sata 7200rpm due to needing a big screen for engineering designs and on the road production |
| Harlan Beith 06.02.2010 | i know right, i tried to do it on a 10" eee, yea, glad to have my 15" envy now :P |
| Cristian Carmona 06.02.2010 | nice machine, but 11"? Damn apple fan boi's!!! |
| Minerva Berniard 05.02.2010 | MacBook Pro all of the way! Hell, even the MacBook runs fast. Wait though. The current ones are beyond the end of their production cycle. New ones should be coming out any day. Whether they're i5 or i7, they are going to be dope. And probably at the same price point. Yeah, I'm a fanboy but I've owned many machines running Windows and they are what made me a Mac fanboy. |
| Thomas Fone 05.02.2010 | i got a 13,3" acer timeline (2x1,3GHz, 4GB Ram) to replace my 15,4" asus. will try to run torq soon. |
| Harlan Beith 05.02.2010 | you know...apple fanboys are like teh Hitler youth....just saying...;D |
| Abby Ladha 05.02.2010 | I was an alineware advocate untill last week! After 3 yrs of flawless service and warranty now void I just lost my video card. I plan to get it fixed then it's going on ebay and I already bought a top spec 15" MacBook Pro. I've yet to see any professional using anything but MacBook Pro's and theres a reason for that that just don't screw up. Not to mention there faster ect. I loved my Alienware when it was working, 4 usb ports, dual 500gb hard drives internal. It was a beast! 17" was probably impractical! Oh well done with the PC BS it's tome to get real! Also I'm spending 1k less and getting a faster system to boot than I origionally spent going Alienware. My Alienware is about 2.5yrs old and cost $2600 the top line 15" macbook pro can be had for $1800. I can't wait! Pluss I'm gonna dress it up like you all have probably never seen before. Oh ya it's gonna be sexy! |
| Roselle Mcnaul 04.02.2010 | I don't really take much liking to PC laptops, but the HP Envy nailed the demand for a professional mobile PC solution right on the head. |
| Harlan Beith 04.02.2010 | using my HP ENVY 15, slim, powerful never misses a beat, cost me 2300, but so worth it core i7 720QM 6GB DDR3 320GB SSD (2x160) 1GB video USB 3.0 HDMI out 15" 1080P LED screen windows 7 pro yea, i love it |

| Al Henger 02.02.2010 | however much I hate to say this, the ideal dj laptop doesnt run windows... traktor just seem s to run better on osx. tis a shame. |
| Lionel Barroqueiro 02.02.2010 | If you have a chunk of cash to dump on a very mighty laptop and want to go the pc route, you could always look here www.alienware.com their a bit heavy but that's what i use, glowing keyboard you can even custom your keyboard color on the fly my favorite gadget |
