[Joefbs]

I was wondering what you guys think the best editing laptop that is a non-Apple product. I know there has to be some windows based laptops that are good for this. Are any of you currently using a laptop to edit?

I have a Dell with an Intel Core i7 processor and 8meg of RAM running Win 8.1 on a 15" screen. It runs PS CC (2014) quite well with a medium WACOM tablet or even the regular mouse for simple stuff.
You can do all the manipulations and file handling with Photoshop and Lightroom but colors are your problem. You'll have subtle and not so subtle color anomalies that could be eliminated with better equipment.

About the minimum for really good performance is a laptop with 8Gig of RAM, and an i7 Quadcore processor. To maximize that potential though you really should add a good 22-24" external monitor, and calibrate it. That setup will do all you want in photo processing. You'll be able to do video as well, but it is a minimal setup for that purpose.
