The Z series are great computers, very stable. If it comes with a HDD, consider grabbing an SSD and install Windows to that.
Thanks for the info!

Definitely got SDD coming with it! I have had PT on Windows several times and always end up back at the Mac, which is fine, but I need a bit more than I have now - I think having a serious FQ Z Series will be a pleasant experience.
