Dell Laptops for AutoCAD
First things we need to know before deciding on which model of Dell laptop to choose, are the system requirements of the AutoCAD 2008 program. For the 32 bit AutoCAD program: - Intel Pentium 4 processor with 2.2 GHz recommended - Windows Vista, XP Home and Professional (with Service pack 2 installed) or Windows 2000 (with service pack 4 installed) - 512 MB RAM - 750 MB free space on your hard drive during install - 1024x768 VGA with True Color - Microsoft I.E. 6.0 (with Service Pack 1 installed or higher) With this basic information, we can now narrow down the Dell laptops for AutoCAD. After discussing the AutoCAD software needs with a Dell notebook representative, it was recommended to us that the Dell Precision M6300 notebook was our best option. This professional workstation is to date the most powerful mobile notebook produced by Dell. Every CAD professional must be able to enjoy, at the very least, a 17" display... and the M6300 delivers a superb WXGA LCD 17" wide screen. At just over 8.5 lbs it may seem a bit heavy, but for all it's uses as a 3D CAD mobile workstation, we think this can be overlooked. Of course Dell laptops for AutoCAD are fully customizable, but even the base models come with some impressive features.
Dell Precision M6300 Notebook features: - Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T7250 - 17" display - Windows Vista Business with XP Pro loaded - 80 GB of hard drive space - 256MB dedicated NVIDIA Quadro FX 1600M video card - 1.0 GB SD RAM - 8X DVD-ROM To customize Dell laptops for AutoCAD, visit Dell Canada Small Business With all the above laptop features aimed at impressing the engineer, CAD guru or 3D modeling expert, the only downfall we truly found was the lack of the numeric keypad; usually found to be a necessity in our technical field.
