Looking for a new laptop…

I'm in the market for a mobile workstation laptop!

I’m a big fan of a high res display for coding and real work.  Anything smaller than 1080 and I find myself feeling cramped when reading or working with code. Mainstream laptops seem to be all 1366x768 or 1440x900 or similar and 1080 displays tend to be found only on larger beefier workstation or gaming class laptops. Those are fine for carting around the office, but if you need to take it mobile, for example to a conference or a trade show, you’ll find yourself struggling a bit.

At the last conference I attended I brought my 10lb laptop but only as my “plan B”.  I left it in my hotel room in case my “plan A” option didn’t test well.  My “plan A” was to try to use an iPad as my main device while at the show.

This meant that I wasn’t able to open up my development environment if I wanted to try something out, but I could check email, browse, and take notes with relative ease without struggling at times to move my equipment around.

This was fine most of the time, but I really wanted to be able to crack open my laptop and try some things out while at the conference and I wasn’t able to.

  1. These days a backpack is more than just a backpack. Long gone are the days of simply carrying around books. We are a society that lives on the go. And the more we can tote along with us, the better. We can stay connected no matter where we are.

  2. When you decide the most extreme RAM limit on your portable workstation, you would then be able to check how much tablet memory all of you prepared have. Check your framework data or the memory report that is given upon boot up.

  8. But since the laptop will be used for graphic design work, a mid-range video card will do just fine. If your work implies doing 3D graphics work as well, then a high-end graphics card is needed as well. small laptop
