Vfx and notebook with led display?

Hello! I am thinking of buying an Acer Aspire 7735ZG.

Intel Pentium T4200 ( Dual-Core )
4GB DDR3 SDRAM – 1066 MHz ( 2 x 2 GB )
500 GB – Serial ATA-150
17.3" TFT 1600 x 900 ( WXGA+ ) – CineCrystal LED
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 – 512 MB

It costs about 970 usd in Norway. The specs seems okey, but I have one question. How will the CineCrystal LED display work with vfx work? I have heard that matte screens is to prefer, but does the same thing applies to LED-screens?

Thanks!

Nuke on notebook. Which graphics?

Hi,

just like to ask if people use Nuke on a notebook, which graphic cards they are using it with (and which os). Nuke would not even launch on linux with integrated intel graphics last time I tried. So any info on either windows or linux notebooks is welcome.
I would not need it for serious work. Mainly for training.

Monitor Recommendations

I just purchased a MacPro Desktop and need to get a monitor. I work mostly with Photoshop, Shake and Maya. I didn’t want to spend more to get the Apple 24" when I know there are cheaper and just as sufficient models out there. I’m looking to get a monitor size range from 20"-24." Basically, if anyone has any advice for an affordable monitor I would truly appreciate it.

13″ MBP only has 6-bit display!!

Apple are really starting to change the definition of their "pro" line. I think the quote from the keynote "What isn’t pro about it" could come back to haunt. First we loose the expresscard and now this. Makes it pretty much useless for us. At least it’s only on the 13". The worst thing is they won’t even admit it.

previewing stereoscopic comps – stereo monitors

Hi guys,

Do you have any experience comping stereoscopic stuff?
What are the most common previewing techniques?
Are there anything else, but red/green glasses on the market? I mean polar glasses with special monitors etc.

Thanks,
