    Im looking for a new laptop.. my old one has bit the dust.

    Anyways... it needs a few thing as its going to be used in a media class for video editing and possibly animation. So it needs a good CPU and Video Card.... ive looked at a few and i would appreciate your feed back on them: (oh and they must have firewire)

    The Asus has a slightly slower CPU, but a miles faster graphics card. Not sure about the reliability of Asus notebooks, but that's the one I'd go with out of those two.
