Re: Laptop Suggestions
Ok, I picked up a Dell XPS 13" at Costco for $1400. 4K Touch Screen Display 16GB RAM 500 GB SSD internal drive Windows 10 I'm in love with it. So light and compact, smoking fast, absolutely gorgeous display, lighted keyboard with great tactile feel. It even looks cool. It's got face recognition, so I just walk up to it and… -

I would second the Lenovo recommendation, but I would be careful about their consumer oriented lines. I've been using the ThinkPad W line for the past 10 years and they're solid machines--great keyboards, lots of ports and good screens. They aren't thin and light however, so the W line is not ideal for travel, but there… -

Thanks @Dyun. I currently have an ASUS laptop and I previously had one of their net books (10" laptop before there were tablets). Both have been reliable, so I will probably check this one out as well. It looks really impressive though I'm not sure I need that i9 processor :). I checked the Dell outlet also and I can get… -
Re: Laptop Suggestions
I like it! It's not like working on my 31" 4K monitor at home but totally usable for me when I'm traveling. My previous laptop was a 13" Lenovo LaVie, so I knew what I was getting into in this monitor size. But I love the tiny size of it. Plus it's super light, 2.6 lbs. Windows 10 added a new graphics settings for… -

I am using a Lenovo Yoga 720 which is both a laptop and a tablet if you fold the screen backwards. It has a beautiful 15.6" 4K touch screen, 256GB SSD drive (but you can get up to 1TB SSD), i7 2.80GHz processor, 16GB RAM, 2GB 1050 Nvidia GeForce Graphics, up to 10 hour battery life (on battery saver mode), 4.4lbs. I paid a… -

In a year, give or take a bit, I am thinking about taking a long term auto tour of the USA. My “home base” would be wherever I happen to have stopped driving at the time so I would be processing photos on the road. I'm not planning on camping (much) so I will have access to power and hopefully wi-fi. Right now I am using a… -
Re: Laptop Suggestions
Well, I still haven't taken the plunge but I may be getting closer. I have been considering the XPS 13 but since this will be my only computer I am concerned about just having the integrated graphics. Also, a Costco special on the XPS 15 seems to have a lot more bang for the buck ($1849 in case the price doesn't show if… -
Re: Laptop Suggestions
Thanks @Dyun and @Richard for the Lenovo suggestion. The Yoga looks appealing from a portability perspective. I do hope to do some overseas travel as well and that would be much easier with a lightweight system. But, while I will have a well padded case of some kind and will make sure the case is well secured, I am…
