Will mostly be doing GFX, editing, and school work. Not too big on gaming on a computer.
Was thinking a MacBook Pro 15", maybe 17"?

Macbook definitely. Something like a Macbook Air or something along those lines.

Do not get a MacBook. They are the most overpriced laptops out. Just compare these two.

Almost the same specs, but the MacBook is $600 more. Now you won't necessarily need a Zenbook for what you want to use your computer for, but its a hell of a lot better then buying a MacBook.

Definitely not a MacBook, they are over priced. Im getting a Packard Bell TK85 051, but that might not be what you want..

Alienware is also really overpriced. And he said he's not into PC gaming.

WHY anything Apple? Is it necessary? With that much money you could build a gaming computer even though for what you need it it's not at all necessary. A laptop from Walmart would do you fine. Keep a lookout for Black Friday deals and you can get one for 300 dollars under that will suit your needs.

1. The Asus you posted on have a 1.7ghz i5 processor. 2. The MacBook has a 2.4ghz processor AND an i7. The difference between that and a MacBook is that the MacBook is better.
