I'm currently looking forward to join a master's program after my current career (in the lines of software engineering). I want to be ready to work with machine learning and deep learning libraries and be able to develop state of the art programs.

My problem is that I don't know what requirements should I be looking for in a laptop. What do you use? Do you have any laptop recommendation?

Everything is useful :)

What are your experience with various linux distros as main OS? Which one is the best? How looks like your dev environment?

For me are important these points :

- Ability to run virtualized systems (Windows, other linux distros)

- Good battery management

All necessary dev tasks and experiments will be performed in virtualized systems.
