Is this the best buy of about $1k usd with XP?

I am trying to run a video editing software called Studio 10. Thank You, Pedro!

Well no, becuz your gonna want a dedicated video card. let me c what i can find.
But does it need to be 12.1"? Can it be bigger?

 

[peterpopanut]

It can be bigger... I kinda wanted to stay in the $1k USD range... but if i need to go higher i will... Thanks!

You actually usually end up paying more for a smaller screen,

that one is a much better deal but has Vista, personally, if you want XP, id get something like I showed above, and downgrade to XP Pro.

i had considered downgrading, but i hear there are problems with the hardware and drivers...

From the link below, which laptop would be best for me to be able to edit video with studio 10?

those are all the XP drivers for that laptop I recommended, however, I would not recommend any of those laptops due to the integrated graphics and low RAM.

This would be great for you, but it is over budjet!

Preciate it Tekka and Garethman!!... I may just have to drop the extra $$ for the Tosh... i really dont want to hassle with vista or buying xp and "downgrading"...
