I'm looking @ getting a new laptop/tablet for graphics, images and such. Anyone one here have any experience w/the equipment in the title?
Pros/Cons? Thx

Not me. I avoid Microsoft like the plague :-)
The software is proprietary. If your lap top breaks it is
highly likely that you will have to buy a new OS from
Microsoft to fix it.  Linux is always free for the download.

I keep an old Windows 7 around to
run one or two programs that only run on windows.

Android is a good tablet OS.

I do all my email on Linux and just about everything else
for the last 17 years. With 500,000 files the command
line search in Linux is instantaneous.
