so i'm now auditioning a 3rd screamer laptop for use with the mbox/PTLE package i bought, and it doesn't seem to perform very well either. do any damn laptops perform well with pro tools?aparently PT is very picky about chipsets (intel only), and i have gone to the added expense of upgrading my purchase 3 times with no discernable gain...
