Howdy,
I'm in the market for a new laptop which will be used exclusively for work activities and programming in Java/C#.
This machine will not be used for gaming.
The main things i'm looking for are a i7 and 16BG of RAM, as well as plenty of storage for running virtual machines.
After looking around. I specced up the below machine based on the LAFITÉ III 15.6.
How does it look? Is there anything that i've overlooked? I didn't want to pay extra for a GPU that i'd never use in the other chassis. But please suggest something else if it is better. I intend for this laptop to last me a few years
