[QUOTE="Elmzeh, post: 1482652, member: 288156"] Thank you everyone for the responses! :) So just to summarise; [B]MacBook Pro Retina[/B] -Quite expensive considering what you are going to get + all of the parts are going to be glued onto the system which makes upgrading impossible. -Very good for creative, music and media professionals although most software still needs to be upgraded to work with retina properly. -Beautiful machine, sleek design, very quick yet while it can handle gaming its by no means brilliant for it. [B]Windows Laptops[/B] -Better value for money + fully upgradable. -Better for gaming. -Equivalent software available for music production, photo editing and video editing. Would you all agree the above is correct? To clarify I dont want to go for a desktop as I still need something thats portable so that I can take it with me abroad and on trips and I also want something that can handle gaming but also is good for video and photo editing as well as music production - should I assume considering all of this that customising a Windows laptop would be my best bet and better value for money considering the above? Thanks again guys, been a great help! :) [/QUOTE]
