Hello,
I am currently in the process of speccing out a new laptop which will be used primarily for work (run up to 4 Virtual Machines - Linux). I also edit photos in lightroom and very occasionally use photoshop. I do not have a requirement for a decent graphics card. My requirements of the laptop are that it must be super quick, have a 1080P display and have a small amount of fast storage.
I should point out that I have another stick of the 8gb RAM which I will add retrospectively.
Can any body suggest any changes? My budget is £750.
