To all PBI Developers, What is the best Computer (Labtop) recommended for PBI development?

Hi Fellow PBI Developers I'm curious on what kinda labtops other PBI developers use in their daily development work, and what computers/specs. do you recommend having? I'm thinking of upgrading...

    • A powerful processor is essential for running complex algorithms and crunching large datasets. Most recommend Intel Core i7 or i9, or AMD Ryzen 7 or 9 processors. 
    • A minimum of 16GB of RAM is required for handling complex computations and large datasets. If you have the money for it, 32GB will definitely put you a really good place, but 16GB can still get the job done.
    • Good battery capacity so that you don't burn through your battery too quickly while trying to get a lot of work done. Most gaming laptops come with pretty good batteries.
