    Hi all, new enough around here so hope I'm in the right place. I am thinking of purchasing the Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium Student Edition. The specifications they recommend are as follows:
    Windows
    • Intel® Pentium® 4 or AMD Athlon® 64 processor
    • Microsoft® Windows® XP with Service Pack 3; Windows Vista® Home Premium, Business, Ultimate, or Enterprise with Service Pack 1 (Service Pack 2 recommended); or Windows 7
    • 1GB of RAM or more recommended
    • 9.3GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on removable flash-based storage devices)
    • 1280x800 display with qualified hardware-accelerated OpenGL graphics card, 16-bit color, and 256MB of VRAM
    • Some GPU-accelerated features require graphics support for Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0
    • Some features in Adobe® Bridge rely on a DirectX 9–capable graphics card with at least 64MB of VRAM
    • DVD-ROM drive compatible with dual-layer DVDs
    • Java™ Runtime Environment 1.5 (32 bit) or 1.6
    • QuickTime 7.6.2 software required for multimedia features
    • Adobe Flash® Player 10 software required to export SWF files
    • Broadband Internet connection required for online services*
    Anyone know of the best mid-range (E500 to E800) machine to run this on? Thanks in advance.
