    I think if you compare them to a Panasonic Toughbook they are somewhat reasonable.

    The pc audio looked pretty serious...had quad core option for laptop...traktor would run great on that...I just don't want to have to upgrade for atleast 5 years so ima save and get a good laptop...I've looked into lenovo too they seem pretty stable but I need a laptop that can handle the abuse of a dj and sound vibrations

    just buy a decent laptop for like $500 and then buy a SSD for traktor stability and withstanding vibrations

    AFAIK Traktor only uses a single core.

    That is true. I believe the only multi-core benefit for most users here are those who run multiple sound processing apps while DJ'ing or writing music. Otherwise pretty much a waste.
