Hi All,
My son is off to university for CS this fall, and will need a laptop.
I'm looking at purchasing one for him, so he can run Windows and Linux.
I'm figuring on going the VM route.
He can use both OS's but is probably more familiar with Win, and his
courses mandate a number of windows only tools. I'm heading in the
direction of booting Win10 and using a VM running Debian.
A bit of research indicates that the two most popular free VM contenders
are VMware and Microsoft's Hyper-V. Can anyone recommend one over the
other? Are there better choices?
As per laptop specs, I am figuring on getting something with a late
model Intel i7, 32 GB RAM, and 1-2TB storage. I figure many laptops must
meet this spec. Is there anything else I should be looking for?
