guys, this is my first post and i need help
dont know much abt laptops so cant help much here but will do my best
BUDGET
around 40,000....the lesser the better
PRIMARY USAGE
making drawings on AutoCAD, 3D modelling in sketchUP, image editing in Photoshop and presentations on power point, view 3dstudio views on 3DSMAX
SIZE
13" if i decide to connect it to an external tv monitor thru HDMI for bigger screen
but as of now i am stuck on 15.6"
BRAND
good ASS, prefer on site warranty in Mumbai, India
OTHER REQUIREMENTS
i have the habit of keeping too many windows open at a time, there is a chance that ACAD, SketchUP and Photoshop may all be open at one time. also lots of tab open in my browser at a particular time.
prefer to have 5 usb ports if possible or atleast 4
DVD RW
windows xp or 7
wifi, bluetooth, ethernet port, card reader
projected use may involve carrying the laptop to work and during travels...
OTHER REQUIREMENTS BUT NOT NECESSARY
cam
good battery back up
back lit keyboard
dont know much abt this but read somewhere 5400 rpm is good so maybe i would include tht for less heat generation
if i am missing anything from architects point of view , please lemme know
thank you for the help
PS
my notes taking usually involves making sketches too....i usually have to scan them to save on comp....can we sketch directly on screen and save the file.....ofcourse i wouldnt yet put it on priority list but if included would be worth it.
