Hi all,

I am looking forward to buy a notebook to work with VO and Vulcan out of
the current PC.

Are there experiences on your side ? Recommendations? At this moment I
am thinking about a regular notebook with Win7 with an i5 or i7 CPU and
4 upto 8 GB RAM. Regular disk and grafic board should do the trick.

What do you think about it?

Feedback welcome.

Thanks

Niko

Make sure the graphics is at least DX 1.1 if you think you might want to
develop for Windows Phone 7. I'd recommend a solid state disk too for speed.

I recommend Alienware - m17X

Awesome dude!

My laptop has a quad core extreme overclocked to 3Ghz, 8GB of DD3 RAM at
1.666Ghz and dual 500GB SSD drives in RAID 0.

The graphics is an onboard dual 1Gb NVidia card that goes back to a low
power mode when on battery. It is a gamer's machine but then those specs
are exactly what developers want.

Hi all,

Thanks for the input regarding the notebook specs. It helps to get the
selection criteria better specified.

Thanks for your help.
