laptop suitable for video editing image
Elijah
I need a laptop that can handle large amounts of HD video footage and can run after effects and imovie quickly, I believe this means I need lots of RAM. If someone could suggest a good mac laptop for a decent price, it would be an easy 10 points, thanks.
Answer
There are a number of factors that affect HD video processing, not just RAM.
1. The video card
2. Video memory
3. Speed of hard drive
4. RAM
5. Processor cores and speed.
The only Macbooks suitable for your needs would be the 15" 2.6GHz models and if you want maximum RAM (16GB) then only the retina display one.
That starts at $2800 and with max RAM would cost you $3K.
Notice that it has a better video card, more video memory (1GB of GDDR5), a quad core processor, a fast HD (5400 rpm is way too slow) and is upgradeable to 16GB of RAM.
The only thing missing is the decent price.
Best,

I am going to enter my college year next summer. I wonder what is the most suitable laptop for business student because I have heard that mac is not really appropriate. Someone told me that there were some business application which could not run on apple. Is that true ?
Answer
It depends on your price range. You can get a well equipped HP for about $500-600. It'll take care of day to day usage and it'll handle a good number of video games (whether you play them or not, that's usually a good benchmark). In my opinion HP is your best deal right now, they're decently priced and they're good, stable builds. I had a Dell laptop and desktop, both are currently sitting in my closet and I'm now using HP desktops and laptops. I don't like Macs at all, and the only fields they really excel in are graphic/video editing.
It also depends on how portable you need it to be. You can get a very small ultra-portable laptop for around $300, but they usually don't have CD or DVD drives and they're really just for the basics.
Keep in mind, laptops are very hard to upgrade, so don't sell yourself short and buy something just because it's cheap, you'll regret it later on. Shoot for at least a 1.6 - 2 GHz processor and at least 2GB of RAM (You can get away with 1, but I'd recommend at least 2). A hard drive at least 100 GB is plenty for most people, but if you can get a good deal get as big of a Hard Drive as possible. Graphics card doesn't really matter unless you want to play games.
