hi norval,

Some of you might be interested in these examples of Mac and PC
laptop studios -

yes, that is an interesting idea,

I was wondering about the title of your post:
'owning the means of production';
don't you think it could be a bit deceptive that you list proprietary
softwares and operating systems as something that can be 'owned' .. ?
license fees don't convert unfree code into personal property, they just
allow you to use them.

in that sense it would be nice to add a free software variant to your
list of laptop studios :
apart from being much more cost effective (which is definitely important
when you work with students) it would much more prove your point that 'a
painter needs to own their own brushes and so a filmmaker needs to own
their own computer'.
I would say that a painter needs to own their own brushes in order to be
able to adapt, personalise, change and improve them, and so a filmmaker
needs to own their own software tools.

I am sure that with help of this list you could compile a nice set of
free softs, operating systems and hardware specs

best

peter
