So, I've decided to purchase a laptop for all my music producing needs and was just wondering if anyone had any reccomendations...
I've spent quite a lot of time researching different models, and at first I decided on a Dell Studio laptop, but after doing a bit more research I was warned that they've been known to have some serious overheating issues and their components are quite cheaply made.
Now that I've searched around a little bit more, I've come across the Lenovo Thinkpads and have had my eye on this particular model http://shop.lenovo.com/SEUILibrary/controller/e/gbweb/LenovoPortal/en_GB/systemconfig.runtime.workflow:LoadRuntimeTree?sb=:000000F0:00000178:&smid=66F66714E46F4ED690CF063E34731127
I've heard that Thinkpads are quite sturdy, so has anyone who's had any experience with these laptops back me up on that?
Also, in regards to the specs, what's the difference between the Intel Core i7-620LM Processor (2.00-2.80GHz, 4MB L3, 1066MHz FSB) and the Intel Core i7-640LM Processor (2.13-2.93GHz, 4MB L3, 1066MHz FSB), will it make a world of difference depending on what one I choose?
Anyway, any help is appreciated... It's taken me a long time to save up the money for a new setup and I just wanna make sure I'm making the right choice.
