Hey guys,
I need some advice on what touchscreen laptop to get. I need something to make my photoshopping easier. I work for a few magazines and I do the graphic design. The mouse is great but it makes stuff like cropping a vehicle out of a picture very time consuming and not that efficient. I need a touchscreen laptop that will allow me to use both my fingers and a pen to do things like draw in pen points and make vectors.
Price is not an issue I just need to know what is out there and what is good

Thanks
 
The Lenovo X200 has probably the best Pen support. It's Wacom-based. Unfortunately, last I checked its touch support was still resistive, which means you have to press pretty hard for touch. The Dell Latitude XT (and presumably the XT2) has pretty decent pen support and excellent capacitive multi-touch. If money was no object, the XT2 would be my choice. I got the X200 and love it because with student discount it was more than a thousand dollars cheaper than an XT2 would have been when I got my tablet 8 months ago.
