Thanks everyone. I'm thinking maybe I should be looking for a 1TB SSD for my db. Thank goodness they are going down. Maybe they will drop a bit more in the next six months.

I guess I should be looking at a decent speed (i5 minimum) with at least 8 gig ram (hopefully with a spare slot) and as much hard drive as can find. Although the drive isn't most important with a laptop for me, I can always use a large USB drive as the laptop is more for cleanup etc than for adding. I basically wanted a laptop as a second system and for use away from home.

I'm thinking that if I made note in a custom column that mods had been made then I could quickly make the changes to my main db when I return home.

While my dream laptop is way different than what I can afford at least I can watch for a sale to get something that will be workable.
