Hi,
Recommendations for laptops that will handle X-Plane 12 please.
I've not used X-Plane before so I am a newbie as to recommend hardware that will run the simulation at best speed.

Thanks for the info.
Sorry, I should have been clearer. I am hoping to hear from a user who has 12 on a laptop and found a good balance between hardware, maybe more then the stated specs
and has excellent performance. I don't necessarily want to get a high end machine if its not needed.
