Hi there, I'm the actual owner of the page you mentioned, unfortunately it's a dead link now. But I moved the content to another platform: http://bucsaemanuel.hubpages.com/hub/Best-Laptops-For-Graphics-Design . It contains a bit more info than the original page. Thanks again for mentioning my page.

I'm not a big fan of laptops personally, usually don't get as much bang for your buck as with a desktop. I'd recommend getting a custom built computer from a local computer shop if you're not technically inclined, or build your own if you are. If money isn't an issue Apple makes great products. As others suggested, do research!

You didn't defined a budget. So for best for the buck I would definitly go for a Lenovo IdeaPad 510p.

Very good overall performance : Great processor, very power graphic card (really nice for Video Editing), SSD + HDD combo wich make it really fast to boot and use softwares.

It has also a very nice Full HD screen with REALLY nice colors. IdeaPad Y series have really good screens compared to every other companies (even Samsung).

Last touch : Backlid keyboard, aluminium cover and "slim" (for the components).

Usually start at 1200$ but they have alot of specials. Right now its 849$

	Up to 4th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 processor
	Windows 8
	NVIDIA® GeForce® GT750M 2GB graphics
	Up to 16GB DDR3 memory
	Up to 1TB HDD + 24GB SSD
	Up to 5 hours' battery life
	15.6" FHD (1920 x 1080) widescreen display
	Starting at 5.95 lbs / .61" thin

Hi, I`m going to study graphic design. I want to buy a new computer for this purpose.

Which qualities should I look for? Which computers work good with Adobe Creative Suite® 6?

Thank you for advice.
