Hey to all Tom's members

I am hoping someone will give me a good suggestion for a laptop/notebook for architecture use. I am going to school for architecture and we use the program Rhino 4.0, autocad, illustrator, photoshop, and maxwell. Maybe Autodesk 3ds

I am wondering if theres a good enough laptop that run these efficiently. And if anybody has used these programs, we all know it takes a LONG TIME to render if we have slow pc.
We don't have 5hrs to render when a project is due, so I am hoping I can upgrade for a

-good price
-fast

preferably not too heavy.

help if appreciated, if not, build a mATX pc?

You can find some 15.4 inch laptops with an 8600m GT graphics card, which might be what you're looking for. The graphics card means a lot when rendering, I know this as a fact :p.

Studying for an exam right now, I'll see if I can go about finding some suggestions when I have time.
