Im sure this has come up before but here we go. Im not real computer savvy so the task of choosing a laptop is a little daunting for me. Im thinking about getting a Dell. The reason im posting here is, I intend to use it to run REW. My question is, what inputs and outputs are necessry and or desirable to do this. Do I need to be able to hook up to anything other than the mic? Is it necessary to use a feedback loop, if so is there a sound card anyone would recommend? Is there anything else I should be considering? Im just trying to make the right purchase the first time. Thanks for your input and undoubtedly, your patience.
