> if you develop on a slow machine you'll never build something your customers can't use This is the philosophy I try to go by. Some call it premature optimisation, but I just like working on optimisation as part of the normal dev process, rather than a secondary step which is all too easy to gloss over. It gets a bit more difficult when it comes to game dev though, which is the current dilemma I'm in (need a new personal machine, which may end up being the x220, but that'll find use in any case).
