Adding my entry here: Macbook Air 11 inch. I've done most of my edits on this machine. I wish to have a desktop and 3 displays for maximum visbility.

Any recommendations for a rig that can fit in my pocket?

5 yrs ago pero monster setup na hahaha, ano na kaya today boss?

I use an ASUS ROG G750JS gaming laptop. I retired my old MSI GT780 just a month ago. The 17.3" screen really helps. Specifically for map editing, I connect a 23" LED panel for dual screen purposes. But in my opinion the hardware is just half of it(i.e. map editing), the other half is internet connection. Without a blazing fast access to the web, your map edits will be crawling their way up to the map server.

My home desktop:

CPU: AMD FX-8320 3.5GHz 8-Core
CPU Cooler: Antec KUHLER H2O 920 110.0 CFM Liquid
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 ATX AM3+
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600
Storage: Crucial M500 120GB 2.5" SSD - System
Seagate Barracuda 250GB 3.5" 7200RPM - Storage old
Seagate Barracuda ES.2 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM - Storage new
Video Card : Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition 1GB
Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower
Case Fan: 4X Cooler Master R4-C2R-20AC-GP 69.0 CFM 120mm
Power Supply: Cooler Master 620W ATX12V
Optical Drive: Lite-On IHBS112-04 Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 Professional (64-bit)
Monitor: AOC E2236VW 21.5" - Main
Toshiba 32" LED LCD - Dual screen
Keyboard: Logitech Wireless Combo MK270 w/Optical Mouse

When mobile:
Asus K55VD Inte Core i7 15.5"

15.5" monitor does not have enough real estate on the screen for Waze map editing but it's enough if you need a map editing fix

I retired my 6 year old desktop and built a new one when it became too slow for map editing

Dream mobile rig is a top-of-the-line Alienware 18 and 4x 28" 4k display on my desktop

Last Saturday I was looking for a gaming mouse with programmable buttons, and of course I would program Waze editing shortcuts to those buttons. However, I couldn't find any that was to my liking so I ended up buying another two sticks of 8GB RAM. Now my system has 32GB of physical RAM. The only bottleneck now is my DSL speed which is still at 5mbps
