Question by Jeff: What is a really good lab top that is affordable? Details inside?
See i want to become a director/writer/producer for films so i would use it for typing up scripts and video editing and movie making. I want a lab top so i can type where ever i want wireless and memory. Graphics would be nice for the film making. I plan on selling my DESKTOPwith its huge monitor i dont know how much i will get for it but i would try to get more money for the lab top. Thanks

Most movie producers use a Mac for their video editing and such. Macs support Final Cut Pro, which is a very popular professional video editing program.

If you want a laptop for video editing, go with the MacBook Pro:

If you want a desktop for video editing, go with the Mac Pro:

Most Apple desktops/notebooks have set the standard for video editing, so that’s what I recommend you go with. It’s almost unheard of for movie producers to use an off-the-shelf PC (i.e. Dell, HP, Toshiba, etc.) unless it’s high-end. If you are serious with video editing and graphic design, then a Mac is for you.
