I am into CAD jewellery designing.

I will be needing both rhino and matrix software for doing jewellery designing. I wanted to know which laptop will be suitable for running it efficiently. Mac or windows??

I would recommend getting a workstation from windows as they are made for this. If you give me a budget, I can try and find a laptop for you.

Which software stack are you most familiar with, Apple or Windows?
That is the real deciding point. Rhino works with either, but which do YOU want to use?

Hardware performance? That is all down to how much you want to spend.
Why a laptop?

I am familiar with both. But the thing is that some are saying rhino 5 for mac doesr not contain all the commands that are found in rhino 5 for windows. I just wanted to be sure because i will be using both rhino and matrix

Rhino was originally just a Windows application, so the Mac port might not have everything. I do not know this to be true, however.
(I've been using Rhino for years)

Which laptop are you using??

Not a laptop. My laptops are strictly travel devices.
I much prefer the power and screen size of a regular desktop. 2 x 24" monitors does not play well with a laptop.

Suggest me the laptop which will be suitable for running rhino as well as matrix. How about dell??

Pretty much anything with an i5 or i7 CPU, and sufficient drive space, that fits in your budget.
There are thousands of laptops and configurations. If you were to list them all, anything in the 'top third' would work for you.

Dell's are good devices. Go to Dell.com and configure one.

The dell is more than capable of doing the job. Which mac are you referring to?

Doing detailed 3D work on a 13" screen would make my eyes bleed.
