    Hi good people

    Can anyone recommend a good PC laptop which is stable enough to take out gigging with MASCHINE. I need it to run some VSTs etc and really dont want to go down MAC route as I use a PC in the studio and all my VSTs are in PC. It needs to be rock-solid, cant have it stuttering and crashing on me while performing!

    Any advice welcome, and thank you in advance.

    blabla - mac myths - seen enough macs crashing, software not working, with hardware failures etc ;)

    seriously, anyone hitting the minimum specs will do, as long as you set it back to zero and install a fresh, absolutely clean windows on it. Get rid of the preinstalled crap!

    if you live in europe: www.scan.co.uk

    they make assembled PC's and Laptops specifically for pro-audio. I've just bought a laptop from them and it's amazing.

    there's a similar thing in the US but I can't recall the name

    Lenovo thinkpads are the only laptops approved for use on the International Space Station, they are really solid computers built very well and are know for their reliability.

    The W series is the best they have...
