I’m running Ubuntu Studio and Ardour on my aging HP laptop, and I’m considering getting something better.

When I bought the laptop I wasn’t doing anything with audio production and was on a tight budget. Now that I do more with audio (and a bit with video) I’d like something more powerful.

I travel a lot for my job so a laptop is much preferred. Any tips for good, midrange machines or specs I should look out for?

    I don’t think you really need anything specific . I have generally used Dell laptops and they have always worked well for me. Unless you play games, I’d definitely forgo any fancy GPU for a better CPU.

      Thanks for the tip! I’m an avid gamer, but not on my computer. I’ll prioritize a better CPU!
