Currently I use a 5 year old HP dv6t with a core 2 duo and 4 gig of ram for all of my lightroom processing. As I've gotten more into editing i've noticed that the poor computer just doesn't seem to be able to keep up. Imports and exports take a LOOONG time and any kind of cloning and healing within lightroom often has the computer acting very laggy and locking up for short periods. Yes I have even recently upgraded to a samsung SSD and a fresh windows install and it didn't help.
I was looking at upgrading to something that will better handle the workload. Again its not major workloads but still. The surface pro 2 intrigued me with it's stylus and seemingly good performance for the size. I like editing on a laptop and then finalizing with my dedicated 24" ips monitor.
Is anyone using the Surface pro 2 for photo editing? How happy are you with the performance?
It seems that the use of the stylus would really help but I don't think that only the sp2 is capable of using the stylus to help with photo editing is it?
