My impatience is overtaking me:
Best Buy has same day delivery of the Alienware
m17 r2 and MSI Stealths in
15.6 and
17 inch size.
Also decent sale on MBP 16" w/1TB.
Of all of these, the Alienware has the worst reviews (but the design is calling to my imagination ?). Enough for me to almost ignore the negative reviews of memory issues and customer support.
I have liked MSI's keyboards.
Not sure if I will bother with video conversion, but other uses will be Corel Painter with a Wacom tablet, learning the Affinity software (Photo, Publisher & Designer), screenwriting and usual things web surfing, watching movies, writing (in MS Word) etc.
Will definitely use a mouse and possibly extended keyboard.
Any suggestions this morning would be great.
