I'm gonna be using partitions on my laptop, windows and

Check in with the ThinkPad general. Anything from t420 series or newer will fit your budget.

Why a laptop?

Macintosh

I checked but they were all 720p screens which kind of bothered me, will those let me do heavy editing?

>>57769194
Portable use, I'm gonna be in places where it will be needed in meetings and stuff.

>>57769302
Overpriced

>>57769161
W520 or W530 with FHD display. End of.

>>57769326
20* and *30 come with 1600x900, newer ones come with full HD

Macintosh is the best computer for Photoshop.

wat

premiere and after effects is what you need

>>57769326

A dock and an external monitor. There aren't going to be any exceptional laptop screens out there. Anything newer than the t420/t520/w520 series isn't going to be much faster, they're just going to get better battery life.

If you can handle 3-4 hour battery life, then you could save some money by buying a great external monitor, a t420 and a dock.

That's marketing bullshit. The newer macs are terrible, they use undervolted processors to save on battery life.

photoshop, ms office, cad... these are all /g/ code for "video games"

I have a gaming PC I don't need a thinkpad for gaming lmao

>>57769740

I use Windows, Linux and Mac OS. I have a Thinkpad and a Macintosh. Windows is the best for gaming(On PC), But for actual OS design Linux and Mac OS are far superior to Windows. The last decent version of Windows was Windows XP. I only do retro gaming so XP is perfect for my needs.

If OP is going for Laptop and going for a PC based Laptop, I also recommend Lenovo. I prefer the X series Lenovo. They are very portable and very high quality machines.

For graphics I prefer using Macintosh. I agree 100% with you the newer Macintosh Computers are junk. Having said that.....the Lenovo Carbon X1 is garbage compared to the Lenovo from a couple of years ago.

If the t550 was half decent, why would I mention the W520 or W530?

>>57769667
Macintosh runs old hardware that underperforms much cheaper laptops when it comes to photoshop. It's good to look like a designer, but it's bad to use compared to other things you can get where photoshop runs smoother.

>>57769689
It's a good computer, it's not one of the bad thinkpads. I want a t550
