What laptop computer is the best one for running Adobe CS5?
I am a 2nd term graphic design student in San Antonio and getting ready to purchase my first laptop and design software set. I’m going for the new Adobe CS5 but I don’t know what laptop I should get. I definitely want to stay on a PC system rather than a MAC. My funds are rather limited, however. I can’t go over $1100. Refurbished is definitely an option, I just don’t know what brand/type to go with.
What you get depends on which CS5 applications you would like to run – the system requirements for each of them is different, e.g., Photoshop has different needs than Premiere, etc. The suite editions vary as well, because they are composed of different apps.
So first thing is to check out the minimums for the software you wish to run and then take it from there…
