I thought about getting one of these thinkpads instead of using my Macbook. Just gotta add more RAM and its solid.

This is probably my list in terms of electronics/software:

Laptop (with at least 8GB RAM, 500GB space preferred in SSD)
BimmerGeeks K+DCAN cable
Tuning Cable (VIN locked one)
Battery/PowerCable
Mobile Hotspot

## Software
  • BMW Standard Tools
  • BMW ISTA Diagnostic program
  • Tuning software (if you are running a tune)
  • AIM Race Analysis software
  • Race Render 3 (Syncing GoPro video with AIM data for overlays)
  • VLC
  • (Optional) Teamviewer QuickSupport - Good if you aren't that solid with this stuff and have a friend that can remote in (I remote in sometimes to folks)
