I am currently thinking about the hardware/laptop I will be using live with Gig Performer. Basically there are these options:
Gaming Notebook

Thanks

I would also consider the option of a Small Form Factor PC. I am currently using a Lenovo M920q successfully:

This is HAL:

After much frustration with various laptops, HAL is my final answer to the issues that have plagued me over the past 18 months.
I am not an engineer or designer…but in my practical use experience, my opinion is (and really has always been) that laptops SUCK. It is simply not logical that a laptop, with everything being miniaturized, can offer the same performance AND reliability that a desktop has to offer.
Since I started this endeavor, I have boun…
안정성과 CPU 효율성을 따져 본다면 역시 3U 사이즈 데스크톱 PC가 가장 좋을 것 같습니다.
참고로 전 ASRock Jupiter X300 미니 PC를 사용 중인데 휴대성과 CPU 성능 그리고 안정성은

For your information, I’m using the ASRock Jupiter X300 mini PC, and portability, CPU performance, and reliability
I think it’s the best…^^*
