<p>I posted this in a different thread but I figure making my own will help.</p>
<p>Whats the cheapest powerhouse laptop I can currently buy?</p>
<p>I am on the computer nearly every second of free time I have (and it’s a lot), and I do pretty much everything on it–gaming, photo editing, video editing, programming, whatever else I feel like doing. Dedicated graphics card and large hard drive are a must.</p>
<p>I’ll be doing computer engineering if that changes anything</p>
<p>You should change your habits and invest in both a desktop and netbook.</p>
<p>Not my area of expertise really, but maybe talk to Tech services at your university or email the department head to see if you can get a recommendation?</p>
<p>This one’s pretty cheap and powerful.

<p>Battery life kinda sucks though… although you might not care about it as much.</p>
<p>You could get a desktop but… if you’re on your computer nearly every second then that would make you stuck in your room nearly every second… which may not be desirable.</p>
