I have a Dell laptop I picked up early last year at Staples for under $700.
It has 4GB RAM, Core i5 and 18" screen. (The wide screen is great for an
IDE.) It has worked very well for my Eclipse development. I even run a Linux
VM (VirtualBox, 512MB RAM) as a database server during development.

Gaining the trust of online customers is vital for the success of any company
that requires sensitive data to be transmitted over the Web.   Learn how to 
best implement a security strategy that keeps consumers' information secure 
and instills the confidence they need to proceed with transactions.
