My deskstop, whilst still working is old and quite slow, it has an intel I3 processor and 12MB of Ram. I am considering replacing it in the not to distant future (but it is not urgent) I have a 27" BenQ monitor so would not need to replace that. Could a good quality laptop replace it and could I then just plug the large monitor into it when I wanted to do editing. I Could then just use one external HD for all photographs as I am getting into a bit of a LR mess using my current desktop and a laptop, which I like to use in front of the TV in the evening.
I am totally useless with computers so cannot foresee what the problems would be, I am not totally sold on the idea, just exploring the possibility and would appreciate the thoughts of others more computer savvy than me.
Budget, whilst not unlimited is not the overriding factor, I'm thinking 1K - 1.5K less would be nice!
Laptop wise I was thinking around a 13 inch high quality screen 16G of ram and an I7 processor but am open to suggestions.
The computer is only used for LR and PS plus emails, web browsing etc. I do not do ang gaming or video processing
Your opinions would be appreciated.
