I'm an interior architecture student and I have to have a new laptop. I'm trying to decide between a Macbook Pro and a Malibal Lotus P150EM. I'll be using programs like AutoCAD, Rhino, etc.
The Malibal:
Display: 15.6" 1920 x 1080 FHD LED Backlit Matte Display
Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-3210M, 3MB L3 Cache, 2.5-3.1GHz
Memory: (8GB) 8192MB, PC3-12800/1600MHz DDR3 - 2 SO-DIMM
Graphics Card: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 670MX (Kepler) 3GB GDDR5
Hard Drive: 500GB 7200rpm 2.5" SATA 300
Optical Drive Bay: 8X Multi DVD+/-R/RW RAM Dual-Layer Drive
Operating System: Microsoft® Windows® 7 Ultimate; 64-bit
Wireless: Internal 802.11B/G/N LAN and Bluetooth Card
(These are the minimum requirements I MUST have)
I want to have a good laptop. Everyone has a Macbook Pro but is that really better? A lot of my friends say they like it because it's "cool", but performance is more important to me.
If you have any other suggestions (not exceeding $1300) please feel free to share them.
