AutoCad/Mac
I'm way behind with my own Mac technology – so I'll let the heavy-duty
Macaroons answer you – if they can. I'll just say that, I think,
Autodesk's job is to try to keep all hardware vendors happy. If Autodesk
were to annouce that a particular configuration worked better than another
or, saint's preserve us, that one platform was better than another, the
abuse from all other vendors would be, let us say, unpleasant.
In any case, it sounds like you have a handsome budget – so I'm sure we'd
all like to hear what you end up with.
