What's your PC/Laptop/Tablet setup look like?

[Kartel13]

My 10 year old laptop is on it's last legs and is pretty much :flabbnsick:

I'm torn between building a PC, getting a surface pro 2, and getting a tablet. Wouldn't mind the nexus 7 but I think I'm leaning towards a 8 incher

What do ya'll got? Does one cancel out the other? I might just scrap the desktop since my time for gaming is limited.

You gotta figure out what your main use for it is going to be first. If it's just browsing or whatever, you might can get by with like a tablet or a chromebook. If your use is more along the lines of your typical college student, or maybe it's more about media use (videos, streaming, music, etc.) then you might need a laptop or something. And if you get a laptop, shyt like the processors and the hard drive come into discussion.

@Carné Asada You can read through my thread. http://www.thecoli.com/threads/calling-all-tech-heads-is-this-laptop-good-money.176360/
They came through with some great insight. I was looking for a laptop that could handle video editing so keep that in mind.

Always start with the basics. Get a laptop. Tablets are for media consumption, not creation.

-PC cancels out a laptop, unless you're on the move a lot
-tablet for personal media satisfaction; dont expect to get any real "work" out of it
-decent smart phone is a must, this also can cancel out a tablet

I disagree its a reason way laptop out sell PC by far. Now for gaming PC is the way to go. But for most everything else a laptop is more than sufficient.

In my opinion, unless you're a gamer or just prefer a stationary item, Laptops over PC every day.

Get a Macbook Pro breh.

The iMac is my main "creator" machine and still new-ish. The Air would be just so I could handle computer specific tasks in a small package. The Pro has great specs but I don't want the CD drive. I'd rather have the form factor of the Air, some ports and the light weight

This my setup:

Custom built pc
Zenbook Prime Touch Ultraportable
Dell Venue Pro tablet

I also trying to sell my Nexus 10 its a great tab but the Dell does everything I need it to do.

I meant the 13" Retina Pros they don't have a cd drive. You get better better specs with about half a pound more weight and a little less battery life.
