[QUOTE="Jeff, post: 281093, member: 21285"] For people like yourself, I hate to say it, but a Windows machine is probably the best. It is possible to get AutoCAD up and running on a Mac, but for all the work, you midas well save the effort and stick with Windows. I don't know too much about 3D applications for Mac, but I do know AutoCAD. Most Macs, with the exception of the MacPro, wouldn't be very good for CAD or 3D applications. The video, processing and memory needs to do a good job of live drawing and rendering are too high for most systems. You would have to get the higher end systems with more memory and video memory. Plus AutoCAD and Inventor are Windows only apps. I think in this case, the work and money aren't worth it. [/QUOTE]
