My work provided this laptop suggestion list for WFH. Any thoughts on which one to go with?

    Maybe they’re checking if people automatically go for the most expensive laptop on the list?

    Seriously though, it’s the only one with 16 GB RAM and 1 TB storage, it’s a no brainer, unless there’s an option to upgrade any of the other packages up to $1,499? You can get a configure-to-order (CTO) option for less than $1,499 on other laptops and have a more capable laptop (except for the lack of a discrete GPU).

      well as a para they shouldn’t be storing much on the laptop but some personal crap everything else should be on an access controlled shared drive or onedrive and not locally stored. so storage isn’t that big of a concern but ram on these is horrible the only real option that I see is the alienware but with all the alienware bloat it’s going to suck as much as the 8gb i5’s… Man this company tho is making my eye twitch and makin my IA side scream in geek…
