I'm curious about your tooling issues. Anything specific you can share?

I don't know about you, but I need much more than "a browser and an editor" on the laptop. I run a lot of apps outside the browser, I create VMs, etc. That RAM and a decent processor are crucial to me.

Thanks, man. First link broken, though.

Reading through HN, I can see I'd better clarify: I'm looking for actual recommendations of specific laptops--not "buy a Dell", "Buy a Thinkpad", etc. There are hundreds of each of those kinds, for example. I don't need a brand recommendation.

Best Linux laptop for web development?

from the self-post dept.

Looking for a solid recommendation of a reasonable, reliable laptop for daily development work in Linux (any distro). 15"+ screen, 16gb+ RAM, good keyboard, good trackpad. Preinstalled Linux or Linux-compatible--basically, looking to move on from Macbook Pro and fully embrace my Linux love.
