For development, 8 or even 16 GB would be great, and look for the higher-res screen. Anyway, for $200 you can have a very decent, durable, highly compatible machine. The only functional thing lacking would be a Thunderdolt port.

That same T420 does support[0] 16 GB of RAM[1] in practice, for the record.
