We have deployed a number of Dell Latitude 620/630's with 2GB of ram,
with Dual Core processors. The screens are 14.1". I suspect it's
important to have a slightly better than default video card.
Generally these are desktop systemes, so there's a docking station,
monitor etc.
We find this works quite well. We will be moving to the new Dell E-
series soon.

 I am looking at replacing some laptops and was wondering what other people are running for laptops, really interested in Dell's.
I have looked at the Epicor documentation, but would like real world experience. According to what Epicor specs our laptops should be fine but they are not, just too slow.

They are IBM Thinkpad X60's , Intel Core Dou 1.8Ghz with 2GB of ram.Â
With only a 12.1" screen they are not too useful for doing Vantage or Excel un-docked.Â

The screen's take about twice as long to draw as the should in Vantage, sometimes you have to minimize and maximize them a couple of times before you get more than the title bar.
I think that is because of the low end video cards in them.Â
And just general slowness in Vantage processing.Â
The laptops are not really the kind that make a good desktop replacement, they are for traveling and checking email. And with the tiny screens trying to work without a monitor plugged in is just not very productive.Â

I'm using a laptop, Dell Latitude 131L. I only have 1 GB of RAM and I
don't have any problems. Make sure your client folder is excluded from
your virus scan.
