Acer V15 Nitro Black Edition For better warranty upgrade to 'Acer Supercare 2' for total 3 years thanks man, but there are some extra questions: i read the review of Acer V15 Nitro Black edition, it's really fits my needs but what if we compare it with ILLEGEAR Z5? of course it will be a 1k difference, is Z5 worth the 1k + difference, or I should stay with Acer V15 Nitro Black?

QUOTE(miong93 @ Mar 21 2015, 05:58 PM) As evo said, MBPr is your best bet if you're still going for IOS or Apple development. If you're totally not into Apple development already, get Thinkpad or Latitude. Most business grade laptop that has high end CPU comes with quadro card, so no choice but to get it though. QUOTE(evofantasy @ Mar 21 2015, 05:13 PM) for your current field, I guess a MBP would be better. you can get the academic discount as well. Really appreciate your replies. Ytd went to Harvey Norman and molested their mbp. Their build quality really not bad and there's a model without nvidia. By any chance you guys know about the after sale from Apple? Because I know their recent mbp is not upgradable friendly.
