I am an avid MAC user, but that does limit me with the programming software. I am currently running Parallels on my MAC and it works for my RS and Uniden scanners for programming. However almost every time Apples does a software upgrade, Parallels charges me around $40 to update the their new version. Additionally I have my home entertainment remotes, that need programming via Windows.
Entertaining the idea of a Windows laptop to do just the items mentioned above. This way I can take it to the den to tweak the remotes, and have it in my office for the scanner programming. Not having been watching the Window machines, I am asking for any suggestions to assist me in making a determination. Items like what Window versions work well and ones that don't. USB/Serial issues and the like.
Thanks much.
