give developers minimum spec

Giving developers super fast machines with max everything means they don't care about efficency generally.

Give them yesteryears base models to work with and that will reduce bloat as they will have to work within the framework of what they have.

That's what I'd do!

back in the days of spectrums, c64s etc....software developers had to be so much more efficient to work within the limitations they had.
