As suggested on my last post 'how to become a design engineer' self practice is the key to learn a design program to a competent level.. At this point, I am looking for a computer so to be able to train myself, refresh my pro/E skills, and be able to apply what I read in tutorials and watch videos online.
As my current status allows only a portable device, (and not looking to invest for a workstation that early) my question is if a decent core i5 laptop with an Inter HD4000 graphic card and 4, 6 or even 8 GB RAM is strong enough to run design software (SolidWorks, pro/E, Inventor, AutoCAD, CATIA, etc), so i can design parts and assembly.
