non-gaming laptop advice...
Turning to you good folks for some advice on laptops.
I'm not looking for a gaming specific laptop, I have my desktop for that. What I'm looking for is a laptop for travel / on the road. I shoot music concerts and my editor has asked me for a quicker turnaround time (ie right after the show) and the only way to do that is to bring a laptop and transfer right after the show.
So I'm in the market for something...but not sure where. Last laptop i bought was 5-6 years ago for my ex-wife, it was a Dell. Did the job fine, but i'm wondering if there is better and what is available in terms of possibilities with a laptop.
- I need decent hard drive space, nothing major, as its more for in the field editing, not storage
- I need high RAM, as running photoshop, lightroom and so on can be intense at times. 4 is a must, 8 would be nice.
- It needs to be somewhat small. I thinking max 15inches. I'm already lugging 2 bodies, 3-4 lenses to a show, dont want to add to the weight (and chance of it being stolen)
- Good screen resolution, colours and such is also important.
I currently have an EEE PC netbook thingy which was fine for travel, but i need something that works better in the field.
Any advice? Or should I just hit up Dell...
Thanks![this is where my funky sig would go. But I don't have one.
So all you get is this crappy text]

I have been looking at laptops gaming for a while. Many of the base models come equiped with some powerful hardware that would suit your needs. I assume cpu power and ram would be what would be looking for. I am on my phone now but when o get a chance I will make a proper response with some linkage.[img]https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4373/35734799443_53cb20ef13_z.jpg[/img]

Dell Outlet is a good place to go for laptops. They'll knock hundreds of bucks off the price, and the turnover rate is borderline absurd so there will be a lot to choose from. I bought our current vacation/wife home-use laptop from them some years ago and it's been a great low-cost investment.
