    Hi mac users,
    I am looking for a laptop that will run autodesk software package civil 3d. Their web site says....
    "we recommend a minimum of 512Mb Direct3D®-capable workstation-class graphics card. Multiple monitors are supported"
    can any of you suggest the best laptop in a mac option for me?
    cheers

    If this software is going to be your main application for a computer, I should at least mention that it does not support OS X and you will be forced to run it in either a virtual machine or via bootcamp or install W7 directly onto the laptop. Either way you might find more suitable options in the PC world... :).
