Made a flop thread not knowing this was here
I'm looking to get a laptop for the first time in like 6 years. My last one was a gift that I knew nothing about and really wasn't built to make music the way I used it and eventually stopped being useful altogether.
All my research on best laptops for music production generally points to either a Macbook, Surface Pro, or top tier gaming laptop, all of which are too expensive, or one of seemingly 8,000 laptops that seem to measure out more or less the same. I've gained some idea about specs, but I still don't know if I need an i5 or i7 processor or how much RAM/SSD space I need to properly function. I'm tryna keep it around $600, but I'll go up to around $800 if I really need to. Help me out brehs
