For a self-employed business person having a company like house cleaning, window washing or landscaping; I would say that a dual core processor (AMD A-4 or Intel I3) would be just fine. Add at least 4 GB of ram and 250-750 GB of hard disk space, and it would be plenty fast enough and have more than enough space. I chose these specifications because; for programs like MS Office, and QuickBooks you don’t need tons of firepower. And the hard drive doesn’t need to be huge because you’re typically only holding client and employee information.

For someone like a Scientist a dual core or a quad core processor (AMD A-8/A-10 or Intel I5-I7) would be a good choice. I would give it at least 8 GB of ram and 640-1TB of hard drive space or maybe have a smaller Solid State drive for much speedier calculations; they could have an external Hard disk drive if they need additional storage. I choose a dual or quad core
