    OK Guys, Need a Laptop to use following programmes

    REVIT
    AUTOCAD
    EXCEL/WORD

    Decent Storage and Battery Life important but most files can be transferred to main computer on completion

    Also does not have to be anything fancy just economical and user friendly

    Thanks in advance for any advice

    Dell precision is your only man (or a lenovo T series thinkpad). Revit is so demanding that you're better off with it on a desktop tbh. If anything it will kill your battery, you'll have to be plugged into the mains to use it.

    Take RAM into consideration.
    4 GB RAM is required, 8 GB RAM or more is recommended for complex models.
    Eliminate any bottlenecks.
