What kind of laptops do you guys use and which brand of laptop (Acer, HP, Dell, MacBook) do you think is best for FRC purposes (including uses like PR).
I use a Lenovo W530. Love it. Super durable, and comes with workstation graphics, which are optimized for CAD and 3d modeling rather than gaming, as most graphics cards are.
