I am looking for a laptop in order to used it in personal projects. I normally work with solidWorks, rhino and AutoCad. I wanted to know if this laptop http/www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-refurbished-15-6-latitude-notebook-8-gb-memory-320-gb-hard-drive/1309868735.p?id=mp1309868735&skuId=1309868735 will be able to handle these programs and also some programming for about a or 2 years?
I was also considering upgrading it with ssd and maybe another processor, so if you have any recomendation or maybe another option near $800 max, please let me know

The laptop you linked to is no longer available.

No point in buying something new, and already upgrading it.

This laptop is within your budget, has a Core i7 chip, and 6 GB of RAM. It should be good for those types of programs for the next few years.
