    Need advice for next computer

    My laptop is just not doing the job, i'm going to get a new computer but i'd like to hear some opinions from everyone.

    What do you think?

    Build it myself?.. Buy in the store?


    I told myself i'll spend $5,000(including monitor).. but i'm sure i'll go higher if I can get a kickass pc

    Let me hear your recommendations!

                            I'd seriously either get a mac or an atari.

                            Show some style.

                                      Check out the Sony vaio. I am on my second one, love the fact that I don't need adapters for transfering content from my camcorder or digital camera.
                                      I want what every other man wants, I just want it more.

                                              Buy it online from Dell - I get all my workstations and servers from there myself

                                              You can make it yourself for cheaper but sometimes it not always a good option since you do get hardware conflicts and crap if you don't know what your doing.
                                              I don't endorse a god damn thing......

                                                        What are you going to do with it?

                                                        Video editing - dual xeon or a G5 is the best.

                                                        Server - dual xeon all the way.

                                                        Laptop - I like me Vaio bunches, but make sure you get one with a good touchpad (they alternate between off brand and brand name).
