autocad is a powerhog, get her 1gb ram, or at least 512...
does she want a lighttop, or can she have a beast-heavy laptop (desktop replacement)???
Is she going to be wakling around with it often, or mainly going to be perm. at the table.

I hate how DELL writes their own HALs but hey, whatever...I'm pretty found of their laptops...they hold up pretty strong and im not too big on compaq/hp type laptops....

Yes, Earth, Dell writes a lot of their own Hardware Application Layers....it's a bitch and I'm not a big fan of it. It's too much power (firmware control) in the vendor's hands. Oh well,

Girl + Computer + WebCam > Girl + Computer + AutoCad
=> Fuck autocad off and get your sister to go butt naked on cam.
I would offer something more constructive but I don't know anything about computers other than how to initialise the power source to make it make that clicky sounds until the pretty pictures appear on the visual showing thing.
