Hi all,
I'm looking to get a laptop which will mostly be used for programming - including graphics programming (so, DirectX, OpenGL, etc). I don't have an enormous budget, but I'm looking for something which has a fair bit of graphical competence. Does anyone have any suggestions as to either a laptop, or what components I should be looking for? Processor, graphics card, etc.
Thanks
