Re: Ideal development platform for GWT/GAE?

Hi, Mark.  I use a mac Air but a larger or second display would be better.  I use an old macMini as a server for testing.  I'm a rank amateur here though.  My code will run on LINUX on a small intranet when finished.

I missed Pete and the boys, and the rest of the family as I'm in Brazil on vacation.  Hope you're well.

Hi, I currently have one laptop (Windows 7 64-bit) that I use for
everything -- and that's a lot of #&^%.  It is an operational mess.
Now, I've installed MyEclipse 9.0 to develop a GWT/GAE application.
Unfortunately, whenever Eclipse is running, the browsers start timing
out.  E.g., it is impossible to use gmail. :(  Performance of Eclipse
is pretty erratic, too.

I'm thinking that I should get a machine dedicated to development/
testing of my GWT/GAE application. I just want to install Java,
Eclipse, and the plugins I need for the app.

What do people in this group recommend? I want a minimum of
operational maintenance, reasonable performance, and consistent "it
just works" behavior, in place of the constant hanging, re-installing,
head-scratching operational frustration I currently experience. I'd
like to be able to spend my productive time coding and testing
algorithms, not trying to figure out why the layers of software
underneath don't work.

Thanks in advance for your help!

So far, so good.
