can anyone help?

As some of you may know, I am a Film and Media arts major at my colllege. I was thinking about getting a laptop to be my primary editing machine. Using my main computer for gaming and editing is starting to use up too much hard drive, and I figured I should separate them by getting a laptop. So if anyone knows anything about video editing, or could just help me find a good laptop (for a reasonable price) it would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks

i would suggest some type of mac for video editing, thats the industry standard i think (although i hate macs and dont like being in the same room as one )

If your working with large files, the external hard-disk will be to slow. You could go for a seconardary internal (E.g. SATA) hard disk with a high rpm.

I was thinking about getting a sony viao. I want to separate my gaming computer from my editing computer. The only game that is probably going to go on this is cod4 (when I eventually get it).

 

but anyway.... anyone have opinions on sony viaos?
