best mac laptop for video editing 2010 image
egertson
OK, I cannot make up my mind: is older macbook pro screen (say 2009) is better than a new current laptop (e.g. Asus K53E)
I need a color accurate screen for photo and video editing. It does not make sense to buy an outdated laptop, but maybe screen quality is still better than cheap new windows laptop?
are apple screens really that good? does any current windows laptop (CHEAP) can compare to them?
maybe there are any other options?
Answer
Remember that Mac's are favored within the media industry now. I'm not really sure how well that 2009 Mac would fair with the new Windows laptop.
From what i'm seeing with the Asus you get more RAM, more HDD, a better CPU but then reading the reviews people say it sucks.
If you can get like a 2010 Mac-Pro then you're good for awhile even though it has a slower CPU and lower RAM, than that Asus.
I have a 2010 MacPro and it still works fine for editing and stuff.
Like i said, Mac's are made for media so it could be a good deal but then again it couldn't.

Going to buy one of these cause I need a new laptop for my classes that I'm getting into at school. Broadcasting media
Answer
When it comes to broadcast media, Mac > PC. Yes, you can tweak a PC to run with a Mac. But why jump through a bunch of hoops to get the PC to run well when the Mac does it straight out of the box!
I have used both...
I have a PC with Premiere and Vegas, and a MBP with Final Cut. I edit videos on both and use my MacBook Pro to DJ, with music videos, at nightclubs.
As for the comment of "much more software available (pc)"... Yes, there are more titles available for PC, but you don't need them. Final Cut Pro is the best. Most movies and even TV shows are edited in FCP
But to answer your original question, Is a 2010 MacBook pro a good dj, audio, video editing device?
Yes, the best choice.
While you certainly don't NEED a Mac, they are considered the best laptops for use in the audio/video industry. They have a much tighter integration between hardware and software, and use industry leading parts and manufacturing.
As for Price - many PC magazines (PC, not just computer) have done comparative analysis on the actual cost bang for buck, and found Macs either comparable or cheaper than equivalent PCs! So a lower end Mac will often be better than a 'faster or bigger' sounding PC.
Conclusion: I think some Windows programs are good at somethings and Apple apps are better at other things. But you cannot run Apple apps on a PC, and you CAN run Windows programs on a Mac if you put Windows on the Mac.
As was stated earlier:
The answer is "Get a Mac."
