I didn't know you could run a UNIX type Operating System on a PC like mine. I will look into this. Also what do you think about Lenovo Laptops? I saw one on their website for $679.99 with 7th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-7500U Processor (2.70GHz 4MB), 12.0GB DDR4 2133 MHz, 1TB 5400 RPM, NVIDIA GeForce GT 940MX 2GB, 15.6" FHD IPS LED AntiGlare (1920x1080) w/integrated camera, DVD recordable, etc.

It has been a long time since i looked at a Laptop and I was leaning towards an HP workstation.

Thanks.

that looks like it’s got some pretty good specs- I don’t know much about lenovos- but they have been around a long time- so are probably quite reliable- not sure about the graphics card- if you like gaming, it might not be the greatest card- but i don’t know- maybe it’s top of the line for laptops? The 7’th generation intel gpu is the latest and greatest I beleive- 12 gig ram is pretty good. 1 terabyte drive is pretty good, but it’s only 5400 rpm- a little slower than the 7200 rpm but not much slower- You might wanna look at solid state drives- they make the computer quite a bit faster- but they cost quite a bit for 1 terabyte drives
