Second Skin Rep Jon Posted July 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 MacBook pro is the best laptop. Had mine for few months now and not a single issue with it. Our friend owned MacBook for many years and loved it, rarely any problems. And stay away from Dell, it's freaking garbage. I'd go with an MacBook Pro but I need a PC for the tasks I'm doing. 99% of the work I do is on my iMac though. Quote Have a question about Second Skin? E-Mail me!

skittlesRgood Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 (edited) i got an acer aspire timelinex a few months ago and im loving it. it has an I5 processor and cost me about $630. the battery lasts about 6 hours depending on what im doing. thats more of a guess because i dont actually run the battery until its dead. i recharge it by 50%. wifi connects the second i open it and ive never lost connection. my old dell took several min. to connect and would drop signal every so often.

bcpballer64 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 Your inquiry into Sony has led me to find this laptop from Sony. It is the only Vaio that has a 17" screen and it appears to have decent specs but it is an i5 not i7 but the new processors have excellent reviews so you should still be good to go.

That's kinda pricy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can install windows on iMac. I thought that doing that would make the computer glitchy and stuff?

Second Skin Rep Jon Posted July 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 The tasks that I will be doing with the laptop will be in Windows, so why pay the premium for a Mac? My shop PC I have a ton of Asus parts on/in it, as well as the monitor. Been quite pleased with their products. Quote Have a question about Second Skin? E-Mail me!
