    Just to be a Mac advocate…I’m using the latest MacBook Pro 15″ (non-retina) with Avid Symphony 6, and it’s blazing. Just over $2000 though..

    It’s great.

    I’d probably go with the newer 8570w but I understand the desire to have a larger 17″ monitor.

    Too bad the newer gen version (8770w) only uses AMD graphics. 🙁
