To be honest there's a lot more that factors in when you're buying a computer for business. It's not just the CPU and GPU that come with it, there's a plethora of other factors that may be important to the buyer, such as:
* Maximum ram upgrade amount (most consumer laptops max out at 8 GB or 16 GB)
* Screen quality (IPS vs TN, glare vs anti-glare, etc)
* Keyboard layout and quality (yes, this matter A LOT if you type all day on the computer)
* Driver compatibility (since Linux is mentioned)
* Weight, roughness (or beat-up factor), portability factors, battery life, modularity, expansion ports... the list goes on.
It's not just "this machine which has a top end Intel i7 CPU and an SSD" for everyone.
- davidw 13y agoFor me the screen is the most important thing. Pretty much anything these days is 'fast enough' for what I need if it's got enough memory. I was a bit disappointed, infact, in the HD screens these days - my old one was 1920x1200, rather than the new one with 1920x1080.
