For a long time, my go-to recommendation for reliable laptops would've been thinkpads; but I haven't had any experience with the new chinese versions. I've been pretty happy with my (employer-issued) HP ProBooks, but that' a sample of one, of course :-) One thing to keep in mind for your particular usage, though, is that consumer drives, and, especially, laptop drives, are not designed for 24/7 operation. I would strongly recommend to go for SSD storage even if you don't need the speed, as those at least don't have moving parts. /johan -- Unhappiness is discouraged and will be corrected with kitten pictures. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
