It is a hardware question but kids from PC forum won’t know the answer.
This time I have different problem. I need to buy a computer that will support Windows Phone Emulator(needs DirectX11 or 10) and virtual Windows(vmWare). This one is really cheap it is about 380$ but I am worried if it will handle the Android and Windows Phone emulator well.
LCD – 15.6″
AMD E E300 (1.3 GHz, 1MB )
RAM – 4 GB
HDD – 320 GB
AMD Radeon HD 6310M

WindowsPhone 7 are of two types WP 512 and WP 256.
WP 512 means it runs with 512MB or ram and same for WP7 256.
WP emulator takes more memory but run very smoothly on my PC.
Upto 1 Gb by WP-512 and 600MB by WP-256 emulator
Android run very slow on my pc and takes minutes to start. It takes les memory approx 350MB but consume must CPU cycles.
MY PC configuration is:
Windows 7 Professional – 32bit
Intel i3 @ 3.07GHz processor and 4MB Cache
On board graphics card
4GB RAM
500GB HDD
