M1tch Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 Hi all, Unsure which section of the forum I should aim this at but I felt tuning might be the best, I currently have a 10.1" Windows 10 tablet which I use for logging on my Power FC ECU I currently have which lets me swap out maps and make changes easier than using the PFC hand commander. I have a Link Xtreme going in and was thinking that it might be better if I upgraded to a laptop - mainly due to the fact that the tablet is touch screen so not 100% perfect for more precise adjustments and also using an onscreen keyboard etc. I was just wondering what everyone was using for a laptop used for tuning - I initially went for a tablet as the battery life is usually better than some laptops etc, just wondering if I should go for a laptop with a better battery life or aim for one with more RAM or maybe a better processor - I am unsure what is usually maxxed out when tuning/logging. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confused Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 If your tablet works, then just grab a USB or Bluetooth keyboard for it I personally use my Dell XPS13 laptop, it's small, light, and has great battery life and good screen.

Thanks for that, yeah I could look at getting a Bluetooth keyboard for it - it only has 1 USB port which I will need for mapping! I will see how well it runs on the tablet I have, its not the most powerful but seems to do the job at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg W Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 If your using a dyno or have much vibration when tuning then get something a solid state hard drive or retro fit one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leiden Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Im using a Toshiba Portege running Windows 7. Great battery life and I've found Toshiba products to be a lot better than Compaq or HP models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
