Just wondering how closely you have to adhere to AutoDesk's requirements.
Does this Gateway NV7915u notebook spec look like it could run Revit 2010/2011? AutoDesk system requirements call for a 3.0Ghz processor for Windows 7.
The graphics (Intel GMA HD) is not a dedicated graphics chip, but is integrated with the Intel Core i3 processor: it does have all the features AutoDesk asks for.
Processor 2.13GHz Intel Core i3 M330
Memory 4GB DDR3 SDRAM 1066MHz
Hard drive 500GB, 5,400rpm
Chipset Intel HM55
Graphics Intel GMA HD
Operating System Windows 7 Home Premium
Dimensions (WDH) 16.2 x 11.0 x 1.4 inches
Screen size (diagonal) 17.3 inches
The appeal? It's only about $600.
An alternative is the HP Envy 15-1050nr: I've seen one recommendation saying that this laptop works well with Revit. It's more like $1700.
Thanks for any advice!
