Hey,I would not worry about

Hey,I would not worry about that at all. Any laptop would do. Why? My laptop is almost 6 years old and I could mullti-tables really easily without any problems. The most table I played at once is 16. The point is: if I can multitable on that old piece of computer (which btw was the best computer I ever owned :D), anything you buy today will do.Poker would be the last thing I would base my choice on when the time comes to buy a new computer. Do you want a Mac or a PC? Do you want to play games? What is your budget? All those questions are far more important than running efficiently when multi-tabling; because in my opinion, no matter what you buy, it will do just fine in that area.Cheers!

I would get one that has at

I would get one that has at least a 15" monitor and whatever the highest resolution is at that size, (some# x 1080).  Ive been waiting for the new dell XPS 17" laptop to someday come out with the higher resolution monitor which would have about 1920x1080 resolution instead of a very crappy 1600x900 resolution for a 17 inch monitor.  They have yet to add this option after 4 months and Im losing hope.  What im trying to say in this rambling is the higher the resolution, the better for multitabling/tiling tables.Another suggestion is find one with a touchpad that you really like and that works.  I have an HP laptop I try to not play poker on because it has the absolute worst touchpad I have ever used.  Best thing to do is go to the store and mess with them a bit, find one with a high monitor resolution and a good feel you like and you should be fine.  just about any laptop you get today will have strong enough specs to run HEM and poker software just fine.   X
