I am a college sophomore and starting computer science classes next semester. I want to find a good laptop (I move around a lot) that I can use for school and that can handle VB, C++, photoshops, and all that good stuff and also play some games if possible but I have a desktop for that if need be. Anyways I basically need a professional workstation laptop that will be able to handle a lot of things simultaneously.
1. What is your budget?
- $3000 Max
2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering?
15" to 18" The bigger the better but I want a decent battery life if at all possible.
3. What screen resolution do you want?
1920x1080 would be preferred
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
That's a tough one, I go performance over portability but I would like to find a nice medium.

At least 2 hours.
6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?

Everything from photo/video editing to programming, running linux, dreamweaver and web design.
