My 6-year-old laptop has finally given up the ghost, so I'm looking for a
new one.
What I'm currently considering is a:
Lenovo Ideapad U310 13-inch Ultrabook (Graphite) - (Intel Core i3 3217U
1.8GHz Processor, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD + 24GB SSD, Windows 8)
Of course, I shall promptly remove windows and put Fedora 20 on it instead.
My principle use of darktable is on my desktop machine, but when i go away
on holiday, i use my latop for storage (I dump my cards to it every
evening). Then I will use the lighttable feature to look over my days
photos.
So it's nice to have a 500GB drive (my old machine had only 80MB, and I
once filled it up with two days left of the holiday. Luckily I was able to
rely on my card for the last 2 days, but sometimes I fill it up in less
than 2 hours). But what to do with the 24GB SSD? My first thought is to use
it for a swap file, but if there is some feature of darktable that could
exploit it, I'd consider that instead.
