Bought the p226 legion sao about three weeks ago. Had to immediately send the slide in to fix a issue with the sights. I got and back today and finally got to shoot it. This thing is like the holy grail. That trigger is magical.

But I don't do a whole lot of high power computing anyway. Mostly web and downloading stuff.
Glad I could help.

I'm going to use it for music production and I will be putting Pro Tools, Fruity Loops, Cubase, EZ Drummer and probably Kontakt on it. I will need to hook it up to my keyboards when I'm mixin up fire, and I have keyboards upstairs and downstairs. I'll also use it for general home computer use and don't want to be tied to one room in the house. I have a somewhat regular jam with a few guys and they always come to my place but we've talked about playing in other places, and if I get a good laptop I can lay some stuff down that's portable. My keyboards ain't going anywhere. I prefer to play guitar but nobody else does keys or drums so I get stuck with that.
I know a laptop is much lower spec and less upgradable than a desktop, which is why I want to go ahead and get something somewhat loaded that I won't have to worry about for a while.I haven't played any games in years but I may start at some point, and want to have that option too.
I have a Lenovo 13" Yoga with a 64gb SSD drive for basic use, as well as a 15.6" Asus hooked up to a keyboard and large monitor setup.

But a UPS driver that makes $70K+ a year? (Yes. They make that much. I know two retired UPS drivers personally.) LMFAO no thanks Jeff.

My first job was a paperboy when I was 10 or 11 and I delivered each paper to the doorstep, my dad made me business cards that I handed out, and I took requests of where the paper should be dropped off at. I made more each month in tips than my paycheck lol.

No need for a desktop.
I have a Surface Pro from work. Perfect compromise IMO.

If you have a job requiring skills so rare you cant find a us citizen to do the job, i would expect that job to pay 130k or more.
