I debated as to whether or not I would post the following link, but there have been so many questions in this forum(s) re: which Intel-based computer/laptop/tablet/cpu to buy, I thought maybe I should. So, FWIW ...

Nice recap. Thanks for sharing!
When I purchased my current laptop which I primarily chose for working with Logos I ended up choosing Core i5 rather than Core i7. This article confirmed that it was probably the best choice for me. Here is the quote that stood out to me about Core i5 - They "probably represent the best balance of price and performance for high-end users." I have found it to be an excellent choice to run Logos.
I have i7 because of CAD work and Logos runs fine, but I feel it is an overkill for Logos.

That caught my eye, too, along with this comment, "... jumping from a Pentium or Core i3 to a Core i5 will get you a much larger performance bump than jumping from an i5 to an i7."
Thank you - excellent article which I will save to refer to in the future for my next computer purchase.
