Hi guys,
Wondering if anybody can help me, need a new laptop for work use and need to discuss a bit about it.
First of the laptop will need to be a multiboot system, one boot will have windows 7 and two will have Linux openSuse on them. One of the openSuse will require a virtual machine on it. The virtual machine will have 3 subsystems on it, all openSuse again.
The virtual machine system is for a test bases for something the company I work for needs and the other Linux is for programming and of course the windows is for the office stuff, I would also like to do some gaming, nothing ridiculous but would like to be able to play and Java games I create and also some sandbox games
I am not even sure if it is possible to do what I want, is it?
Also I need to know what spec laptop I need, I am imagining it will need to be powerful, due to the fact that I will be programming it will be best to have a large screen. Also due to the professional nature of the business It is probably best to have a unibody chassis or at least a good looking normal casing. Things like backlit keyboards are nice but not a necessity.
Any suggestions on the laptop or method to do what I want?
Thanks in advance
