    So I have no budget in mind, however naturally the less the better. This computer offers 1TB storage, 12GB RAM (3x4GB), 3GB Graphics, i7 3610QM (2.3GHz) and 15.6" screen. Suits my needs for producing videos (in Adobe After Effects and 3D Rendering Programs) and music (FL Studio 10, Pro Tools 9). Does anyone have this laptop and can tell me about it? I ask because it's said to weigh almost 8 pounds, which isn't really the lightest available. If this isn't good, can someone lead me to a lighter computer with the same general components? If need be, storage space can be sacrificed, but no HDD less than 750GB. Thanks!

    You probably don't need quite that much graphics power. Check out the ge60 or the Clevo w150erq.
