Currently I'm using an old SONY Vaio running Windows XP Home Edition (modified to XP Pro). It has been very reliable over the years, but alas, it is starting to slow and I'm afraid will **** out at any moment. My main usage is for RSLogix 500, 5000, Proficy ME, and Factory Talk View Studio. But I also have several other software programs on there that are used sparingly (VersaPro, PanelBuilder32, InTouch, SIMATIC Step 7, Cimplicity, iFIX, MOSCAD Programming Toolbox, System Tools Suite). I've been reading up quite a bit on laptops, VMWare, Virtual PC and the like but I was wondering what recent laptops people are using now, their OS setups, and their pros/cons to their system setup. Specifically I've been looking at the HP Elitebook B2A89UT so if anyone has that particular machine, I'd be interested in hearing your opinion. Thanks.
