Go on let’s have em, what laptops are you all running and do you recommend for SP 2013 development ? The MBP a contender (surely not)!… Is anyone surviving on 16gb ?
UPDATE! Can you also add your laptop and configuration to this list : (User “Add to List”). http://list.ly/list/73V-sharepoint-2013-laptops. If someone has the same one, just vote it up.
I created my sandbox environment on single machine with 32GB RAM as I wanted to play around with all available services but we should have dev/test/stg as multi server environments with at least 2 web fronts load balanced, App server, SQL Server which can run on 12 GB each as we are not running everything on same machine but we still need 64-bit, 4 cores(if less than 1000 users) or 64-bit, 8 cores (if more than 1000 users and less than 10000) and 80 GB for system drive on each Web server, application server in a three-tier farm.

Wow … what a lot of responses!
