I'm currently running with a 2015 Macbook Pro. My shift from academia to the real world comes with a fund to buy new toys. What is your current set up and what would you change?
My main workstation is an Alienware Aurora. For the most part it works great. The thing I don't like in the end is that internally it is filled with custom junk that is difficult to upgrade/replace. Support from Dell tends to be craptacular.<p>The one thing I would likely also change is that at the moment I have three monitors spread about landscaped, horizontally. If I was going to start with all new hardware I would get at least one monitor potentially all 3 that had the option or swiveling into portrait mode.<p>For what it is worth, I am currently considering a workstation from Boxx.
I currently use dell XPS with very less applications. I mostly interact with FireFox and Bash terminal. I usually use Sublime text for editing and writing code.
My machine is powered by Regolith linux which offers i3 configured out of the box instead me doing it myself. Regolith is powered by ubuntu.
Lastly my machine is very simple I wouldn’t say it’s powerful it uses intel i5 processor with 8gb ram<p>I hope this helps and if i get a chance to switch I would go with ThinkPad x1 Carbon
Just your average decked-out "gaming" PC. An approximately $3000 AMD/Gigabyte with a smaller-sized 4K monitor.<p><a href="https://secure.newegg.com/wishlist/md/7519915" rel="nofollow">https://secure.newegg.com/wishlist/md/7519915</a>
(I listed all the parts here, but I didn't buy them all here)<p>I don't really game.
