The more memory that you have, the more RAM that you have, the better your computer is going to work running multiple applications. Your hard drive space is going to determine how much stuff you can store on your laptop. The more space you have, the more stuff you can store. A solid state hard drive is going to allow for faster boot time. When you're opening a program, it's just going to be instantaneous speed. Screen resolution is going to be an important spec to consider. The standard now is all HD. There's also higher than HD resolution.
