    Thanks Zarathustra.

    Haven't heard anything about Gateway in a while.. didn't even know they were still in business. Anyone have experience with them recently?
    from what I remember Acer owns Gateway now.

        Another thing is hard drive speed.
        It seems that most notebooks come with 5400 rpm drives, but there are more and more coming out with 7500rpm drives or solid state (which i assume would be good for video editing)

        its worth checking tigerdirect.com as well

            I guess I'm really talking about practicality via Rendering Time. I'm really just getting started on editing full hd with my hp dual core desktop... which is HD ready, but the rendering time seems awful slow.

            Basically just looking for the ideal solution at a low price point.

            No, it doesn't have to be the fastest.. but needs to be able to work at a decent enough speed for the price point.
            I was trying to edit HD on a dual core a few years ago.... couldn't even get the video to play on the time line smoothly. I have the i7 950/12gb ram on a machine and it's works great for HD. at some point you need to access the value of your time and aggravation tolerance against perceived cost. then you'll know what machine you need to editi HD with...

                I agree, you can, but I don't know about speed of editing...

                    So what are the main aspects to look out for concerning editing HD?

                    1. Hard drive speed
                    2. Memory
                    3. Processing chip

                    ???

                    Many thanks for this thread, I passed on the Toshiba because of it.. and am now looking at something bigger and better processing wise for the same amount of money.

                    Some times good deals are not that good.

                        sorry, the hard drive speed i was referring to is 7200 rpm which this Lenovo has-
                        http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...Sku=T70-150045
                        now, if you add 8gig memory you now have a core i5 processor with 8 gig memory, 7200 rpm hard drive which should be quite enough to handle HD editing easily.

                        Cost - $624.98 which is bloody cheap for such a beast.

                        you can go up in price from there, but i would say 600 bucks is the lowest you are going to get those three factors you require-
