Re: Feedback on using driver station software on another machine
Read reviews about connecting to networks if your getting a new laptop.

I installed the driver station on my personal laptop(HP Pavilion dv5) for Smokey Mountain and ran into some network connection issues. However, it wasn't the program faults but the junk hardware that HP installed.

Dont forget that coding is light on the processor(I know many a team who code solely on their classmates). Battery life and USB ports are far more important, and your drivers would surely appreciate a large screen.
