Hi all,
I am looking to purchase a new laptop to mainly use Adobe Photoshop CS3 for Windows. I have been doing a good amount of research and what seems to be the most important thing for running Photoshop fast and efficiently is RAM and a good screen. I've been looking around for computers now for a couple weeks, and I think i finally found one I like. So my question to you guys is for $1200, does this computer seem like a good deal and will it run Adobe Photoshop CS3 successfully? Here are the details:
--Computer--:ThinkPad T61 Widescreen
--Processor--: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T8300 (2.4GHz 800MHz 3MBL2)
--Operating System--: Windows Vista Home Premium
--Display Panel--: 15.4 WSXGA+ TFT (Widescreen Super eXtended Graphics Array Plus
Resolution: 1680?1050)
--System Graphics--: Intel GMA X3100 GM965
--Total Memory--: 3GB PC2-5300 DDR SDRAM 667MHz SODIMM Memory (2 DIMM)
--Hard Drive--: 160 GB Hard Disk Drive, 7200rpm
--Intel Turbo Memory hard drive cache--: Intel Turbo Memory 1GB
--Wireless Cards--: Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN (supporting Centrino Pro)
--Battery--: 6 cell Li-Ion Battery
Thank you, Your help is much appreciated guys!!
