Hello,
I need to buy a new computer to do music on and would prefer to buy a laptop. I could do macs also but after 5 years of sonar/windows, i feel comfortable with that and would like to stick. My question is, can i do music on this PC laptop system? I imagine I could because the specs of my current desktop aren't as good as this and i've been using that for years, but i don't know maybe laptops are different.
Intel Core™ 2 Duo T7500 (2.2GHz/800Mhz FSB/4MB cache)
2GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 at 667MHz
250GB SATA Hard Drive (5400RPM)
I'll get some firewire based soundcard to connect to monitors/preamps/microphones etc.
would this be a good system? or should i get a desktop?
Also, the laptop would come with vista home premium. Will that be a problem? Right now I use Sonar 4 on my desktop. I bought Windows XP for my desktop so I should be able to install that on my laptop if i need to though, right? or will i not be able to because i already put it on my desktop?
Thanks guys, any replies appreciated.
