apparently as a student lenovo won't sell to me individually, but i can get the notebook through my school, but not the notebook i want.
in any case, i am able to get the following computer for $1900, but there are some things missing and im trying to decide whether or not they are that important.
im getting my masters in architecture so i need a computer that can multi-task 3D modeling programs, adobe, etc...so i would think the video card and HD speed would be important
what its missing:
the RAM, i want a gig...i know i can add it
the hard drive speed, ideally i'd like 80g 7200
the video card, is there a huge difference between the, 256MB ATI FireGL V5200 and the x1400 it comes with?
thanks everyone!
