Hi there, I'm looking for a laptop for college to semi-replace my sig rig. I've got a low budget unfortunately, $600 or so. But before I go setting my sights on a particular one, I've got 2 questions.
1.) If it has an HDMI port, does that mean it also carries through sound? I've got my GTX280 hooked up with a S/PDIF cable for audio/video through just an HDMI cable and I've grown accustomed to it.
2.) I'd like a laptop that could accomodate my G51 speakers, which would mean I need a green, orange, and black ports. I'm sure I won't find a laptop around $600 that would have a sound card like that, so is there a PCMCIA card I could use?
3.) Any ideas? I WON'T be gaming on it at all. I'll take care of the software, so don't worry about that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
