As a contract programmer I run my business from a dell precision 7710, Fantastic laptop and I've had zero issues with it. Handles everything I throw at it. That being said its close to 12lbs with the brick. Not so bad if im travelling with my own vehical and am only one shop ina day, but often im at multiple customers and when I fly its unruly to lug around, near impossible to use on a flight. Not that I fly often for work but its not exactly portable. I got to lay my hands on MSI new WS63 work series when I was at my local PC store yesterday, and man is it nice. Other than the less than ideal trackpad (minor issue as I pack a mouse) thin, light, beautiful speced with 8 gen i7, and P3200 gpu. My plan for next upgrade is a WS tower for home/shop. And eventually replace my Dell with a slimmer more travel friendly 15". I do the bulk of my contract stuff pre programmed and only make minor changes onsite.

ive been looking into this and it seems my comp does have 4 cores, so it can be upgraded to 32 which i will probably do soon. but probably out of my own pocket. its pretty quick for me compared with the old one, but would like to see how fast it could be. thanks.

So I see why this hasnt really taken off, after an exhausting 5 hour search of the forums into Subprogram, subout$, subout and any other thing I could think of, I get the sense that this has been covered many times over the years. But thing is from my searches I am not coming across anything that is complete (idiot proof), or very recent. That being said no matter how much I try to understand MP, its still hieroglyphics to me. I have all the documentation, Ive taken the online course, but at the end of the day I still have no clue where to start when trying to understand MP. Possible I am just to old to learn at this point in my life, or the 60 work weeks, balanced with family dont afford me the time to focus. Lol... eithway I was hoping for an easy fix for my mpmaster based post, like a switch for prebuilt logic, but all the information available points to modification and assumes that I have anything like a clue of what do do. I can only imagine all of the Awesome things I could make a post do, if I only had a brain!
