All that said, if you are going to develop, 512 MB is the absolute min, and 1 GB is the preferred choice.

As has been mentioned elsewhere on the thread a nice big display is probably as important as anything. A lot of your development time is spent using a text editor - not the most cycle hungry application. Being able to see plenty of what you're editing is a huge advantage.


If build speed is really a problem I'm sure you can lash together a couple of cheap Linux boxes and make a compile farm :)

Bear in mind also that if you only have one machine and it's the fastest thing on the block you won't get much of an idea about parts of your application that might be unacceptably slow on an older machine.
