    Depending on what he is looking to do, some quick thoughts…

    • The Samsung lacks a dedicated video card, so no VJ’ing options, but has 4 USB’s which is rare to find, so plus for that.
    • The Lenovo also has 4 USB’s, but none are 3.0. Does have dedicated video (and 2gb to boot).
    • Acer doesn’t say how many USB’s it has – also check Google for Acer’s throttling issue. It scared me away from their product line.
    • HP also has 4 USB’s but none are 3.0.

    I’d also look up reviews for each model to see how hot they get. Considering some of the environments we work in can get rather warm all on their own, it’s important to have a computer that stays cool.

    Has your friend considered building a custom laptop? This can often end up cheaper and then you can make it a dedicated dancefloor destroyer.

    Lenovo is the best lappy for all devices and view ports also.It has numerous features which could be really unique and different from others,like several attachments are there which easily recommend the DJ and LCD facilities.
