Hi All,
I posted the post "FORGET ABOUT LAPTOPS" Dont get me Wrong, laptops are fine (I just dont use one) So for all the LAPTOP users. in my travels (online) I found this "FIRE BREATHING MONSTER" If I was getting a laptop it would be one of these :-) its suited for the task nicely !
SPECS:
ITC Millenia 7300
5.6kg<monster!
NVIDIA GeForce Go 6800 Ultra 256MB (The graphics can be upgraded too)
3.6GHz Mobile Intel Pentium 4 800Mhz fsb processor with Hyper-Threading
1GB/2GB 533MHz dual-channel DDR2 SDRAM
2 80GB 5400rpm SATA hard disks
Built-in analog TV tuner with a remote control
Built-in 640 x 480 Web camera
4 USB 2.0 ports
CONS> HEAVY, HOT, VERY $$$, LOW BATT LIFE (but for gigs it would be pluged in the wall anyway) !
(BUT IT WOULD CRANK)
3DMark05 score of 5077 and a high PCMark04 benchmark of 5266

the hotter a laptop gets the slower it is for that model ul need an external cooling system for sure

Its a 3.6 mzh cpu its not going to slow down alot, external cooling a laptop with the loads "MUSIC/VDJ" puts on , would be a "standard" add on if you used it for this purpose, even DUAL CORE cpus get very hot after being on, playing music all day .
Thats all nitty gritty stuff anyway, The point is find a "powerfuller" laptop if you can, after all we allways want more POWER !!!! :-)

(I get hotter than my cpu, jumping around/dancing, when im behind the mixer!!!!) lol

i don't know why u got to put down laptops for,i think u just got to get the right one for what you are going to do many of u guys are just looking at speed memory is very imporant also that's what i run into when i bought a laptop three years ago the max memory was 512,most laptop have a max of 2gb memory but with win vista soon out you can use any amont u want just plug in say a 4gb usb flash drive win vista will use that also as memory.a rackmont pc is fine and batter i were just about to put one together a good rackmont pc will run about $2000 so i'm thinking this or laptop.
