Hi guys,
Time for an upgrade on my machine at work. I'm not sure what the budget is but i want to make sure i recommend something that will be up to the task. I will be having a laptop this time round instead of a PC.
I work in Business Intelligence and as such I am required to do extensive work in SQL Server 2005, Cognos Framework Manager, and also MS Excel & Access. I regularly work on loads of things at once so it's not uncommon for me to have 5+ applications running at anyone time.
I was thinking I would probably need at least an i3 but would i be justified in asking for an i5? I'm not sure how these scale with laptops compared to PC's...?
Thanks.
