Is my laptop good enough to support my development needs? [closed]
- by KodeSeeker
I have an ASUS Pentium-R Dual Core CPU running at 2.20Ghz. It has 4 gb of built in ram, currently running a 64 bit Windows 7 . I just started graduate school and Im wondering whether I should go in for a new laptop or just repair the nagging battery on my current one. My requirements include -
-Ability to support IDE's - I may end up running Eclipse, Visual Studio's and the like to help with my work.
- Ability to run multiple VM's (not concurrently). Im currently running a Ubuntu 12 and 9 as VM's (not sure if this is overloading the system)
- I'm a non gamer so I really dont care about a minor glitch caused by running a uber heavy game.
-In addition I will have heavy use of Office Application Software and will be using my computer to watch movies and stream media.
Looking forward to your replies and suggestions!
