yeah...didn't mean to 'submit' that message yet

i need at least 60gb HD, at least 512mb RAM, dvd-burner, firewire would be very nice. i want that wide shiny shnazzy display. P4 is ideal over amd, i've heard, for video editing...is this true?

the deal is, i want big HD, memory, and dvd burner . firewire. and fancy screen without getting a HUGE laptop. under 1200.
any ideas?

Get a desktop.

I would stay away from compaq laptops. If you are serious about editing, you will want a beefy desktop with a tits monitor. It is really nice to have both a laptop for mobility and a desktop for power

did no one read about the 1200 dollar limit?
i don't want to pay for an ibook or powerbook.
ibook isn't up to par with what i needl, and powerbook is too much.
now, back to the topic.

I'd go with the HP. I never really trusted Compaq's.

you can edit hd with just about any computer if you know what you're doing. You don't need powerbook.

tigerdirect.com/ they have a SWEET one for 1200. check it. its got like 3.2 processor, a ton of memory, a big hard drive, ect. that place is great. we bought all of our stuff throught them.

The idea of a powerbook is so you can brag to everyone how cool you are because you have a powerbook.
The extra $600 or more is well worth it.

I don't think I will ever go back to a PC. Macs are well worth the cost. When I think about it, if your going to be spending $1200 on a computer, saving more and going for something extra special is well worth it.
I'm no techy but I heard rumors of a G5 powerbook in months to come like January. When that does come around you'll be able to get a G4 for like chump change.

the averatech is sooo light...but not powerful enough.

the hp and compaq notebooks, when in the same price range, are almost interchangeable...

personally, i reccomend toshiba notebooks. highest quality...

tigerdirect.com is good stuff.

idk if you've been looking at it, and it might be $$$$$$$$$ more than you have to spend, but have you looked at alienware.com?

^Alienware laptops are great! ...As long as you leave them plugged in. The battery is gone in about an hour otherwise.
