Windows 10: Need new Laptop Machine.

I have an old17" ASUS laptop (Q550 LF) with 18 rams of memory and a SSD Card. Th on/off switch has been going out form some time. The internal battery is about out and I am getting a lot of fan noise so that is not long for the work. This machine runs Microsoft Business 13 or the latest version, Outlook 365, all of the typical windows programs, Autodesk AutoCAD and Revit Bluebeam Acrobat and several other viruses protection programs and a firewall This machine is mean to travel. It is a little big for that. The Surface Pros seem to small. What should I look at getting quickly. I want a base station at home, probable will be the new Microsoft Studio. I also have an iPhone. I want all programs and machines to work as one to data put on one machine when traveling can be put in all other devices. I also have Dropbox Pro. I want the date to be in the correct folders and files and I want all programs to be backed up.


I need a sturdy portable laptop with a good size key board and plenty of memory and a very good graphics card with memory.


The base station machine will be much more powerful. Microsoft is not a mandatory product line. However, I want something with good service like DELL or Asus. The ASUS has been problem free for 6-years. A very good product. Problems are little but an issue such as letters coming off buttons, back lighting and a overly sensitive touch pad that send files to who know where in my document files. I prefer a Logitech Mouse, Microsoft pen or some others, and a tough screen. I want quality equipment that will last. Is a GTECH something like that also a consideration so I can use it in the field and in client and board meeting situations. International travel is also involved. That then goes back to dependability and service.
