    Laptops for engineering.

    hassan96, For a CAD and imaging laptop, I'd suggest a 17" screen, a reasonably fast CPU, and a workstation graphics card with a lot of memory. A bit bulkier to carry around, but this makes visibility much easier and hours will be saved in panning and zooming. I'd think this would improve the...

    Good video editing software for my PC ?

    owismail, I should mention that I have Adobe Premiere CS- because it was included in Adobe CS, but have not ever really used it. There are some reasons to use Premiere, mainly that it's the basis for using the full version-later- you'll already know it. I started with Corel Graphic Suite...

    Acrobat will not start

    kep55, Your problem with Adobe Acrobat Pro not running is not unique, but I've never learned the exact cause. Here's what I would do: 1. Make a careful un-installation of all previous versions. Adobe is quite fussy about this and two versions will not run on the same system. 2. Setup an...

    Hypercardioid /parabolic mic with wireless

    Janet Sherman, There are a number of potential components needed and the way to do it depends on the sound quality expected- the use- and the budget. Some questions : Is this to be a permanent, testing, for sound effects use? Are you recording to a hard drive or DAT or real time? Do you have...

    CADD saving issue

    TazMikeM, That is an odd one. I'm not at all an expert in Architecture in any way (it's too similar to ArchiCAD to make using both logical), and don't feel I know enough about the individual circumstances, but I looked around for likely problems /conflicts in Architecture 2013. There must...
