Dear Members
What PC configuration would you recommend for Web Development (PHP, MySQL,
etc.)? Mainly what processor and RAM.
Do you really need an i7 processor with 2+ GHz machine? Or would a basic
Ubuntu system with Dual Core processor & 2 GB RAM do?
I like to use my netbook running AMD E350 APU and 6 GB of RAM. You don't
need a powerful CPU as you're not compiling anything. I prefer more RAM as
these days browsers end up using most of the RAM and I prefer my system not
to be sluggish and that RAM is pretty cheap, if you have DDR3.
This setup gives me advantage of not having to lug around a heavy machine
and it gives a better battery life than usual laptops. And it's portable
than having having a desktop so I can carry it around.
