which laptop?

[RabbieBurns]

Im in the market for a new laptop. Im not interested in the tablet / slate fad, but I do like something I can use on the go.

 

Im currently using an Acer 1830, its the perfect size (11") and 8GB RAM and 256G SSD serves me for those componenets. But the i3 and non-virtualiseable CPU lets me down on the road.

 

I have a pretty decent 6 core desktop which does me when Im in the office, but Im after a laptop that is powerful enough to render a 3 minute movie in Premier in less than the current 12 hours, and something I Can fire up a VM or two in the background. But it has to be ~11".

 

Anything tick these boxes? Budget is high.
