I am looking at building a laptop. I would use it for Web surfing, Email, Maps, simple Multichannel audio mixing like 8 channels at a time, and Video Recording, like video/Audio streams from a video camera, and maybe some Gaming.
I am looking at the HP ZD7000. I don't know if this would be overkill, or if I should go down to the 5000 series. Below are the Options and specs I can choose, I will make my choice bold. if anyone could tell me if I am building what I need, or if I am going overboard, or not upgrading enough that would be very helpfull.
