Ans: Software development for Mobile Platforms. I will be compiling lots & lots of code (intermediate binaries from source code will be around 60GB. Most of the code will be downloaded from internet - around 5 to 8GB). It takes 3 to 4 hours in my office with i7- 3770 and 8GB RAM

Ans: Bangalore. I will be buying locally
11. Anything else which you would like to say?
Ans: I am thinking to use 128 GB SSD + 1TB HDD. Just to get the speed. Please share your opinion
