I am pretty new to autocad. I got interested in it from my sister and brother in law that use it at work. They are starting a new business and will be using Autocad as there main software package. I would like to help them figure out the best hardware setup to maximize Autocad. What suggestions does anybody have or if some one else was paying what would you order. Is a 486/33 the way to go. How much ram. What video cards or monitors. What size drive do you recommend. One suggestion we have got at a local store is 486/33 DX 8 MB ram 240 MB Quantum Drive Diamond Speedstar Video With 1 Meg. 14" SVGA .28 DP non interlaced monitor. 3 1/2 and 5 1/4 Drives M/S Mouse Does the 486 require any other math-coprocessor to work with Autocad. Will a 14" monitor work ok for most applications. Any advice would help greatly. Once we spend the money we won
