Hi Kart,

Well, it's hard to say.

Some things to consider:
 - To Mac or not to Mac?  (This is really just your preference.)
 - Memory, get as much as you can afford.  Running VMs will hog memory.  If you 
can, find a model that supports 4 memory slots.  That will allow you to go as 
high as 16 GB.  (Possibly 32GB when the 8GB SODIMMS drop in price.)
 - Look into SSDs.  Prices are always falling, and it can really improve 
performance.
 - After that, it's all the other little features....backlit keyboard (very 
nice), display size, etc...

All,
I am thinking of buying a laptop  to  install  virtualbox and install oracle
11gR2  RAC  with OEL.  What configuration and vendor I should be going for .
Looking for any suggestion from the List members.

Appreciate any pointers.
