    Mate id get a second hand 13" MacBook off eBay if I was you. OSX & Traktor is a top combo.

    Haha just round the corner then, i think or would have thought a 13" one would be too small, id prefer at least a 15" screen tbh. im looking at macbook pro's on ebay but its a lot of money to spend on summat 2nd hand that could fook up on me in a month or so lol... do u gig anywhere around here then? or is it just a hobbie dj'ing?

    Just a hobby to be honest man, bedroom DJ at the min.

    About the screen size though, I think a lot of people on here get on with Traktor fine on a 13", I know what your sayin' though I went for the 15" but when I see me mates 13 it looks perfect. Kinda wishin I went for the smaller size.

    If you get a PC laptop, perhaps look at investing in one of these...

    Some really promising reviews, I'll probably invest in the future.
