My dream machine needs a balance between portability and horsepower.
With portability comes a long lasting battery. I've had some Dell laptops (Inspiron) with a battery that won't even last 2hours of normal work, that's not great.
The ability to use two monitors is important, I'm not sure if I can handle more or I would just get crazy.
Processor, RAM and HDD will vary with time, but more is better 😀
One thing that I'm not sure about is if I should buy a laptop in the US, because I'm really used to mexican keyboards and the use of "ñ". I can configure the keyboard settings, but with an american keyboard, I'm missing one key. So if I have "ñ", I won't have"<>", that's annoying.
