So /g/,
what is the best mobile computer one can buy?
I am interested at those stone cast 5 kg setups that will never overheat and will feel confi compiling 5gb of code while playing gta5 on max settings.
what is the best new?
but to make things harder what is the best for the money from the aftermarket, lets say @ US$500, as the selection pool is huge.
Do you have an opinion on that issue /g/?
pic unrelated I guess

My opinion is that desktop replacements are a really bad compromise. You can have a powerful desktop for serious work and a thin, light laptop for use on the go for similar money to the cost of buying a high-end desktop replacement.
There are specific situations in which they make sense (on-location pro video production, for example) but they're few and far between and I think it's really worth considering if your application really demands something that's barely mobile.

Workstation laptops make sense in all scenarios where you have hardware requirements which necessitate a workstation, but mobility requirements that rule out a desktop. In such a situation there isn't a compromise to be made, as a desktop/ultrabook combo would not solve the issue. Examples include civil engineering/architecture, CAD work/rendering, and as you stated video editing.
OP, you're retarded and you won't find a new desktop replacement for $500. Maybe if you go on ebay and buy a used Lenovo workstation laptop that's a couple generations out of date.

Yeah, I'm well aware of the architecture segment in particular, as my dad is in a related field and does CAD work all day.
However, even those fields often don't actually necessitate a laptop, as many jobs involve setting up in the same place for a few weeks at a time. My dad used a desktop replacement for a while, but switched to a small desktop since it's so much more efficient and convenient to work with that it's worth the hassle of moving multiple components around. He only uses his laptop for displaying premade renderings to clients and for very short trips now.
Thinking the same. Don't want the commitment of a static located PC.
Thinking of something like maybe a W series or x1 carbon steel with an eGPU for gaming.

maybe I am not the retardetest poster in this thread, fastWriteNoread- one.
>sed Lenovo workstation laptop that's a couple generations out of date.
to my question: WHICH ONE?
this was my question which one is best for the money, new and secondhand?

Can you read? Do you speak English? My statement was prefaced with "you won't find a new desktop replacement for $500"; the subsequent suggestion was given as an alternative.

but W are 15" max, are they not?
what about fujitsu - I used to have one 17" from XP erra it worked for at least 5 years - I mean played all new games and stuff - it was expensive, and randomly picked from my parents, but proved to be extremely well build... It was user machine though not workstation class, I didnt care for work then anyway.
Fujitsu seems to have bad reputation here if any, why is that? (I am kinda new to /g/ anyway)
