I'm gonna be taking some production courses the next couple semesters and might be doing some editing work, which means its also time to upgrade from my 5 year old Dell notebook with its so-hot-it-could-be-a-foreman-grill power supply.
The quandry I'm stuck with is PC or Mac. I'd ideally like to get a notebook and a desktop but I'll only be able to afford one for now. I can score the MacBook pretty cheap with a student discount or finance a Mac Pro until I'm 30.
PC wise, I'm clueless. Any particular specs to look for? Which would be considered requisite and which optional? AMD vs. Intel? Minimal vid card & processor speeds? I appreciate whatever anyone has to offer. Thanks!
