What's the better option? Mac i7 and no desktop or Mac i5 and desktop? Seems crazy they are pretty cheap with Dev equipment..
You guys get desktops??
Have to choose the lesser laptop for the option of having desktop though.
I just get an Inspiron i7
Go with the i7 laptop
Depends on your role and what the specs are. You can always get a laptop and a secondary monitor.
Who needs a desktop? Just use your cloud desktop and the i7.
Who uses Desktops for coding now days? MacBooks are more than enough to get the job done. Just get two monitors
Be an ec2-user. Or go serverless.
Depends on your role, most likely those lab126 guys will be doing local stuff that are not on the cloud. But they prob have extra hardware budget.
Just get the better laptop. You can always get a cloud desktop.
Most Dev teams use ec2 dev desktops that can get pretty big depending on the area. Unless your manager mentioned that you should get a desktop go for the i7 MacBook or the xps with Linux.

What? When did they start this process? Which profile?
Got an email to choose the equipment I want to receive after my new hire orientation.
At least as of last fall. They use a public domain as well for it. It’s like newhireequipment.com or something
