Advice please - laptop for Architecture student
Hi All,
I'd very much appreciate some advice from you knowledgeable folks...my daughter is midway through her first year studying architecture and after a new laptop...I'm surmising she will need something with a decent spec to run some specialised software now and in the future. She asked her tutors and they recommended a windows machine for versatility but I'm unsure where to start with regards to spec, manufacturers and cost v benefit..hence all advice much appreciated. My lad has an Asus Tuf gaming laptop that has been faultless for a couple of years and seems to chunter along quite happily so is something similar going todo the job or overkill in areas that are not needed ?. Obviously some will say go get a Macbook so I'm all ears as to why for her subject..:-)
Thanks in advance

Just bought my lad a new one. Second time round as he insisted on buying cheap, and we all know how that goes.
Got a Lenovo Thinkbook 16 G6 direct from Lenovo. CPU upgrade to i7, 32 GB 1TB. About £900+, until you log into their education site that is. £640. You just need a Uni/school email.
It came last week, very impressed. I configured it without windows, which saved £110 and paid for the processor upgrade. You can buy a windows license for £10.
Getting the latest Windows version installed was impossible as there is no way to do it without a network, and Windows installer couldn’t find any drivers to use. Managed it in the end and it is super.
