Looking to get a laptop to run the G4 on...I travel all the time and I would prefer a laptop or a desktop for mobility reasons...
I have only started getting into the RC thing a month ago...at 38 years old it must be me trying to get back to my childhood in some form or its me trying to find something in common with the 16 year son for that matter...
I have spend lots of money in the last month on a 1/10 scale RC buggy, 1/10 scale studium truck, a plane which I crashed and put in the attic, a Blade CX2 which I fly daily, and a Blade CP Pro which I can hover for about 3 minutes each time only.
I am looking at getting the TOSHIBA Satellite X205-SLi1
