Lots of RAM 4+ to run multiple services and apps (i have oracle, mysql, eclipse, tomcat, glassfish all running at the same time, sometimes , ) Good CPU speed with multicore or hyperthreading support Large Hard disk is need for videos Graphic design might require image rendering etc., so you might need a system with a dedicated GPU (More expensive though) The bigger the Screen the better, but you have to compromise for portability and power consumption. I used to prefer 15" but now use 13" cause i do presentations a lot, so i need a small and light laptop. 15" is a good balance though, good screen area for an IDE |

the compaq seems fine, though a bit pricey. One of the more important things for a laptop is mobility, which comes to battery life. If you envisage long periods better you recharge then look for a laptop with i5 proc. else the Compaq is great. You should invest in extra RAM also. An it seems to ship with SUse or DOS , That's not good if you plan to use windows , |
