Question: I would like to get a newer, faster, laptop than I currently use for diagnostics. I would also like to “future proof” myself for when PIWIS3 becomes more freely available.
What makes and models do you PIWIS3 users have? I have seen guys mention that the screen resolution should be 1920×1080? but is this essential? Will it run on 1366×768?
Answer:
Resolution:
You need this 1920×1080,
there are a lot of models available with this resolution.
Laptop advice:
CF54mk1 mk2, T440(x):
CF54mk1 mk2 good (like orig) mk3 will small problem with official updates – expensive
T440(x) – cheap and good
any other with 1920×1080///
If you want “like orig” update way – need have SD slot
for work need USB port
p.s. SSD hdd preferable orig size 512… but min 160-250 will ok
Lenovo t440 t440s t450:
i have test in lenovo t440 t440s t450
icore 5 or icore 7
4 or 8 go ram
ssd 256 samsung
all wiht screen 1920×1080
working good
