Got a laptop for doing work at home.

I was very reluctant to do this. I don't mind having a netbook at home but didn't want a desktop for doing my editing and design work. I also didn't want to spend 5 grand on a laptop that still wouldn't do a very good job.

Well every now and then technology moves forward enough for me to find a use for it. Got a toshiba satalite laptop for just about a grand with a i7 processor and 8 gigs of ram. Also has esata which works real well with my hot swap drives.

I was able to get about half of a $500 project done tonight so it should pay for itself within a few weeks. All while relaxing on the couch with my girl. I loved it, didn't even feel like work.
