I am on the First Robotics team at my high school. This year we are switching languages from C++ to LabVIEW. My current laptop works really well for C++ (Eclipse IDE) but is really slow on LabVIEW (takes about 3 min to open IDE). I was wondering if a cheap laptop like the one in the link below would be very much faster than my current laptop for LabVIEW. I am fine with the fact that the new one runs Windows 8.1 if anyone is wondering. Thanks in advance!
