A Mac ibook or, even better, Powerbook is the best laptop solution, hands down, for audio. But if you need to traverse to the dark side.... I recommend www.microexpress.net I have one of their Windows laptops and it is a great machine. They consistently get great reviews in Laptop magazines. They include firewire on board like the Sony Vaio, have large screens and great graphics cards. They don't advertise.... they only sell direct but they have been in biz for awhile.... Very good tech support. http://www.microexpress.net/ -- gary @friendlyspider.com philip raath wrote: > I'd shopping around for a new laptop that will be my > primary workstation. > > right now I'd leaning towards a refurbished SONY VAIO > fx-300. > > any opinions on this, insight as VAIO performance as a > workstation? i know dt has one on his gear list, but > does anyone else use a VAIO? > > obviously i'm aware that performance is based on the > hardware in the computer, as opposed to the brand > name's on computers. i'm just open any > suggestions/thoughts on this one. > > can i run logic platinum on a laptop w/ a PIII 1.0 > Ghz, > 256+ megs of RAM, and be relatively assured of smooth > performance? what else do i REALLY need to take into > account? > > i don't feel like dealing with dell, their laptops > don't come w/ hard drives above 2400 rpm, to my > knowledge, and toshiba is way out of my price range > right now.
