Now I have an x220 tablet with all the coding stuff like ISTA suite
That is so funny you mention that. Right at the end of about 3 hours of searching & reading articles about how to run Windows on my Mac an ad popped up for Best Buy... for cheap laptops... lol. Targeted advertising at its best! I have been thinking about that the rest of the day now. After adding up all the costs of making it work with my Mac, I have decided I will probably just buy a cheap laptop for coding purposes. Thanks for a few recommendations, I will check those ones out.
