Hi, Well My friend is majoring in civil engineering and she wants to buy a laptop to use for that kind of stuff, you know putting those design programs, designing crap,ectt...
I was telling her that a desktop is better for this since you can build one with double the specs for the same money you would use on a notebook. But she is a bit stubborn.
Anyways, I'm wondering what do you guys think? What would a comp/notebook need for the sort of stuff she will be doing. I'm thinking she will need alot of memory both, from ram and from hard drive. Also, graphic card since those programs for designing need some decent graphics(I think).?
Her budget is $2000 or less.
Could you guys direct me to some options of both laptops and desktops?
Some advice,ect..
thanks for your help in advance
