    Hello, as stated in the title, i need to buy a notebook for my major (architecture) as well as for general college purposes. Are there any specific HP/compaq models that would you could suggest? It needs to render pretty quickly, have a hefty harddrive (80+gb's), have a rather large, but not too large screen (15"?), and be reasonably quick (1024 ram/1.7+ghz). Im looking to spend around 1000-1500. thanks for helpin me out.
