| Strongly recommend an Apple Powerbook: Fantastic piece of kit (I'm an architect running CAD, rendering & video/photo applications on a G4 Powerbook as my main work station) which now communicates effortlessly with PCs. Depending on how computer literate you are, it is also worth bearing in mind that Mac OSX (and subsequently most 3rd party software) is much more intuitive to use and understand, and OSX is very stable.
More expensive than the majority of PC laptops, and you'll need to buy the MAC version of the software you need to use, but in my opinion well, well worth the investment. |
