- Dual/quad core Intel i5/i7 processors
- 8GB ram
- USB 3.0 x2 or (USB 3.0 x1 and USB 2.0 x1 ) The cable we provide is a Y-cable and makes 2 USB connections to the PC, only one of them has to be USB 3.0. To prevent the need of buying a USB extender cable, it is best to buy a laptop where the two USB ports you are using are on the same side of the PC.
I’m posting this for others who may be looking for more info on laptops, by copying and pasting the results of an email conversation we had with a customer. Note that this is not an official endorsement of these manufacturers… just some things we’ve come to realize after working with a variety of hardware for years:

Keep in mind, some of these laptops you will need to configure to match the minimum specs which I list below.

Again, just verify the CPU requirement and verify the USB ports.
