Best laptop for Internet Marketers?

If money is not an option, I would go with a Mac. They have Intel processors so you can load Windows onto them as well. That, to me, is a huge deal - being able to run Mac OS and Windows on the same computer.

This is a subjective question. Do you want something which can be used as a touch screen? Do you need a lot of storage? How much RAM will be necessary to do thing you need to do? These are things only you can answer, and until we know the answer to the questions, it's hard to give you a solid answer. Since you mentioned that price is not an issue, then obviously (but not always), the higher priced the laptop, the better quality it will be. What you need is a sustainable laptop with a reasonable screen, enough RAM (4GB minimum DDR3), minimum of 500GB hardrive, and a minimum of an i3 processor. For me, I use the Asus V550CA-CJ069H, but am mainly on my PC.

Again, there will be all sorts of different opinions, but in the end it's completely your choice.

I really like my Lenovo ideapad.

I would personally stick clear of Mac. They are overpriced and anything a Mac can do, I can do it on my laptop. Additionally,

I have never seen the point behind this. If you get a Mac, why would you want to run windows? Just save yourself several hundred and go with a windows laptop.

Toshiba works great for me.
However, if i is just for the internet use, maybe an iPad would be a great idea. Laptops have a lot of features that you will not need in this case. I think price is also important, as many of such devices do not justify their prices sometimes.

I7 HP laptop

Apple MacBook Pro Mac MD101HN/A
I bought this product 3 years ago.But I want to share my experience. I never had to re install OS ...Its true No virus had ever breached the software...Not required any anti virus programmes.Best feature is that it is too compatable with windows app..Sply Microsoft Office designed for Mac...

this is befit for us because we dont lose any data from us

i felt this is very safe maintain my marketing files....

Dell for me, I love em. I have a 500gb hd, i7 processor. Mine is a few years old but Dell always offer options above what are being offered by others.

I run Linux Ubuntu and so like Apple, no virus, never goes slow and doesn't need all the usual messing about.

Linux also offers lots and lots of free, quality software so for Graphics (Gimp) ... video (Open Shot)

I also rum it as a virtual machine so I can have Linux, Windows and Mac operating systems running at the same time. This helps for win/mac only programmes you cant do without out.

And all under £1000

The best laptop is a desktop :-)

Tonnes more power and bigger screens and better posture and the keyboard is a lot better for your hands and wrists...

Not saying dont use a laptop I have a couple I use when I am traveling but for every day use I have a pc :-)

Fair enough by one with a massive screen and a portable mouse :-)

As of recently, I'm a Mac user and all I can say is "Woah!".

I used to share similar opinions to those on this thread, "Mac are useless, overpriced and Windows is the best" but since making the change, my opinion has changed dramatically.

Sure, Macs are expensive. Sure, most things can be done a good quality windows machine.

BUT that's not what makes a Mac unique. Apple are innovators, it's the hidden features and the reliability that make Mac's better in my opinion.

I've had my iMac for around 3 months now and my productivity has gone through the roof. Not once have I had an issue with it, not once have I found that it's struggled to cope with anything I've tried to do. Not once has there been software which I wanted that was not available for Macs.

For some strange reason, they just feel nicer to use! I get work done a lot faster on them and I enjoy using them more!

I'd go try a Mac at least, you'd be amazed with how nice they really are.

Just my 2 cents,

Joe Crosbie!

After years of using Windows laptop I decided to change to Mac OS and I must say that I am very glad that I did because the difference between mac and windows speed performance are huge. On windows I always got some annoying problems like speed protection itp. I am using Macbook Pro for past two years now and all I got to say is. that its a powerful laptop. I'm definitely recommending Macbook Pro! Great machine

The "War PC vs Mac" will never end !

The question is what is the best laptop (for an Internet marketer) and not what is the best operating system. I work with both since 1989. Initially, Mac was more user-friendly, PC were using the DOS system.

Although I've always preferred to work on a Mac nowadays, both platforms are very similar. By cons, for graphic design and to work with images, Mac is by far my favorite. The system is stable and you do not have to worry about viruses.

I would not recommend you to buy a Mac to install Windows software, if that's your goal, buy a PC. By cons, everything you could possibly need is available for Mac: image editing (Photoshop, Gimp, Illustrator... ), video editing ( Camtesia , Camstudio , ScreenFlow... ), word processing (Word (Suite including PowerPoint), OpenOffice).

The MacBook Pro with Retina display is really impressive! If you want to travel "lighter", the MacBook Air is also very good but the bigger screen is only 13 inches. By cons, it is so powerful that you can connect a second monitor without problem.

I did hundreds of campaigns on a first generation MacBook Pro with a 15-inch screen that I converted into a desktop with a second screen 22", a keyboard and a mouse.

The best advice we can give you is to go in store taking into account the pros and cons discussed here by everyone.

I spent a number of years with Apple products, but I got pissed off that no company was making software for Mac, so I purchased a Windows computer. Buying a Windows computer was the worst mistake in my life. I hated Windows 8, and my computer (which had an i5 processor and 8GB ram) was running so slow compared to my Macs. I downgraded to Windows 7, but still had a number of issues. I just don't like the look and feel of Windows and the performance compared to Mac is different.

Now I use a Mac, and use a Virtual Machine to run Windows on my Mac so I can run any software I use. I still have the Windows machine, but I rarely turn it on anymore. Although I rarely use SENuke, and xRumer these days so I don't need to use Windows very often.

I would say go with a Mac. They will last you a lot longer than a Windows computer, and you won't have no where near as many issues with it.

I would suggest going with a Windows computer. Since you have the money, I would suggest getting a Windows 7 Ultimate K - try to order from any company OTHER than HP.

I love my Lenovo as I can capture a screen video as well.

Main thing is to have enough RAM. Think more like minimum 8GB, not 4GB, using Windows 7. My Laptop sometimes spikes at 3.2GB usage and I'm not doing much else other than surfing!

Is your broadband usage "limited" to so many GB per month? If so I would then look at that increasing it substantially or go unlimited. Have good anti-virus software that doesn't slow down the PC etc.

Point I'm trying to make is....it's not just your Laptop/PC spec you need to give thought to. If the laptop is unlikely to spend most of it's time being lugged around with you, i.e likely to stay at home, consider a 17" screen. Consider getting one from a custom build site in your own country.

I use a Macbook, they are fast, really good screen and very easy to take to places for instance if your going away or visiting a client.

for my next laptop I hope they have some 17" convertible laptops/tablets or some version of dual screen on front/back. I'd really love pen based input too. Freakin love love love the S-pen on my galaxy note3. Handwriting/sketching ideas, taking notes, mindmaps, org charts etc... input for whatever is indispensible and will catch on much more as more people rediscover the brilliant modern versions of pen based input.

They are thin and light enough to carry around now. Can't stand squinting at a small screen. I stick with PCs and have good luck with them. I don't really want to spend double or triple on a mac for "quality" and 5-10 yr durability. I find w/ the advancement in tech, I WANT to replace my equipment in approx 3yrs to keep up with various advances. I can either sell my old one or keep it for other uses. So for the same money I can replace my laptops faster over macs and have the latest and greatest stuff. With all the cloud services now, switching hardware and data transfer/setup is so much easier than it used to be.

Macbook Pro 13.3 Retina, Ipad Mini and Iphone 5s.... best trio!

Re the posture part... Because I like to travel between Australia and New Zealand depending on the season, years ago I switched to using only a laptop. My current laptop is an old 17 inch Dell Studio. It seems fine for my needs.

I now also use a DeepCool laptop stand (I don't bother using the weak fan in it) to raise the height of the laptop screen to eye level, and also use an external keyboard and separate mouse. I keep laptop stands and keyboards in both countries.

For a while, I got away with hunching over a laptop, but eventually I began getting a sore neck and shoulder muscles. Using a laptop stand solved the problem - it's much cheaper than paying for repeated massages and physio or osteo treatments!

Have you watched how people sit when they use an ipad? Crazy!
