Not sure what to get, money is no worry. Basically I'm asking what would be the best thing to get with this in mind: Producing Music Uploading, rendering, editing, and producing films Playing games like DOOM III at a very reasonable quality. Burning dvds Lots of space for videos, music, shows, etc. Also, can all this be done with a very good laptop? I've always wanted one. Thanks for any help you may shed on this. |

I've been thinking about getting a new computerr. Again, money is no worrrry (thank God forr crredit carrds). Mine is a hopeless sack of shit. |

I have an 800 dollar p4 2.8g box, with a 200 dollar soundcard and a 340 dollar audiocard. I can play doom three on high quality perfectly. It takes me 20 minutes to burn a full dvd. Ripping is about the same. |

Powerbook G4 or Powermac G5. If you don't need a really powerful machine go for the Mac Mini, its only £350! |

my sister got the mac mini just the other day, its pretty fast and its almost completely silent. I wish they had these when I first switched to apple, my tower then cost almost £1000! don't expect to be able to play Doom III on it though |

They need to start making TB sized HDs |

i think mac's are a bit of a no-no if you're wanting to play decent games on your computer. |

I'd go for this model |

i'd have to agree with you there. |

unless you have a G5 tower... i'm pretty sure that can play any game there is with a decent video card in it. Games these days are mostly reliant on video cards rather than processer power. |

hey, that looks nicer than the average pc tower! |

I love you, Carl. I know this won't help you much in your quest for a laptop, but I still wanted you to know this. |

Carrl. Hitachi have just released a lovely 500gig hard drive. I would get one myself but I've imposed a ban on stopping myself getting a new hard drive until htey relese a terabyte one. (Unless one fails on me or something.) Get yourself a nice 70gig 10,000 rpm main drive which you can have as your C: drive. Then a couple of other drives taht you can use as d:program files x:my documents. spreads everything about a lot nicer. I'm wishing I'd gone the 3 drives route rather than partitioning. REAL MEN DON'T BACK UP! THEY UPLOAD TO AN FTP AND LET EVERYONE ELSE MIRROR IT. -That Linux dude. |
