Since it is not required to use class mate this year, we decided to use our lap tops. However, we want to run Lab View with 100% efficiency, to program and run robot at competition
What is the computer minimum requirement? Does lap top configuration a difference in robot performance at compettition?

The robot code runs on the cRIO, so the laptop makes no difference in robot performance except that a very slow or overloaded machine might lag when sending data from the joystick or other input device. The best way to avoid this is to make sure that you're not running unneeded programs on the laptop during the competition. If your laptop is at least as powerful as the classmate, and isn't running all sorts of crazy services, then you'll be fine.
