Hello VJ colleagues, with the summer festivals arriving and a lot of thrilling new projects it's time for me to spend a small fortune on a new laptop, and however I'm a fond user of Windows on a gamelaptop (my Asus G74 until now) I'm looking in all directions for a new one and I even might switch to Apple..so any pro's and cons? I'm a windows based user but doubting now...

Hey..Youfuck :)
did you already had an eye on the SCHENKER Notebook range? What about the XMG P704 LINK UK // LINK EU

The connectivity is quite good:
1 x HDMI 1.4a output port (with HDCP)
1 x Display port 1.2
1 x Mini Display port 1.2

They say that it is possible to run 3 external displays simultaneously.

Greetings

I have 2 choices at the moment...
An rMBP 15"with 1Tb SSD or the Asus G750JS with 17", 256Gb Raid HDD and 1Tb SSD and the GTM880 4Gb graphics....

I was hoping on user experiences, almost anyware else on the net it's non vj related so they don't understand, only the VJforums Facebook gives some more enlightment ;)
