As the title suggests, I'm looking for a laptop that is powerful enough to run Pro Tools LE effectively. I've tried two loaner laptops--they were somewhat outdated Apples--that, while able to run Pro Tools in its most basic form, were largely useless when it came to playing back more than three tracks with any more than two plug-ins between them. Put succinctly, these things were effete.
So, now I am looking for a laptop, of course for mobility's sake, that can stare that complex, draining, monster of a program, Pro Tools, spit in its face and say "Give me your best shot."
I've looked on Pro Tools forums but they rarely have any information regarding hardware beyond the actual recording equipment.
I don't have too much cash. I can easily cover anything around $800.
Much appreciated in advance.
