Existing Laptop Option

The third choice is of course just to use the laptop that I have until I absolutely cannot stand it any longer!

Specs of my Toshiba Machine
  • 1.6 GHz Core Duo processor
  • 2GB RAM (some sites say my model can support up to 4 GB, but I doubt it)
  • 100 GB Hard Drive
  • No discrete graphics card
  • Age - 2 years old
Advantages
  • Allows me to make my purchases in stages beginning with just the software
  • I can see from my peers which is better Mac or Windows

Disadvantages

  • Long start up time - between 3-5 minutes
  • Freezes very frequently when I use CS3
  • Slow to load CS3 (Photoshop and Indesign)
