A few weeks ago, I posted a request for laptop recommendations, minimum 4 core, 24GB. I needed the laptop to run latest MacOS and Xcode on VMWare with reasonable performance. The advice I received was excellent, resulting in Lenovo with quad core i7-6820HQ, 32GB RAM, 1T SSD, which is working out great for my application. Simulated iPhone boots up faster than my iPhone, 1,200 step build takes about 15 seconds, incremental is typically a few seconds.
Thank-you everyone for the excellent recommendations. I'm doing the development for free so I was reluctant to pay $2K for a Mac Book Pro, that I would have no other use for. I've got less than $300 into the Lenovo, buying used and upgrading.
