Just as another point of interest. About 6-7 years ago, we got a visit from a group pitching us an application that monitored VoIP calls on a network. I am pretty sure the guy was a PhD and did some heavy duty work around that sort of thing. The laptop that he used for travel was a MacBook (I'm pretty sure it was an Air). When he got it, he made it so he could dual boot it into Mac or Windows, but he said he'd only booted into MAC a couple of times. The rest of the time he used Windows. He loved it because it was fast, not too big, lightweight and had great battery life compared to most other laptops. I assume something modern would be even better.
