I was just informed that I will be getting a laptop from work. I would like suggestions by the community on what are some of the best laptops out there. I am not familiar with laptops, cuz truth be told, I never owned one. I would be using this laptop for mostly graphics, video editing, and possibly gaming.
I prefer pc over Mac, but I'm not that picky if the Mac is best in what I'm looking for. Thanks guys.
Update: I didn't see the sticky with the questions to answer regarding getting a laptop, here goes:
1. What is your budget? $2500
