Holy!!! I just got accepted into an Architecture program and found a link to Mandatory Laptop Specifications!

2.16 Ghz Intel Core 2Duo

2 GB Ram

100 GB Hard Drive

DVD RW Drive

Adobe CS3 Design Standard (Includes Photoshop. Illustrator, inDesign, and Acrobat Pro) (just checked price = $1800.00)

AutoCad 2008 (just checked price = $3995.00

Microsoft Office

So I guess I'll have to spend about $8000.00-$9000.00 on the computer and software! Crazy! :shock:

Anyone have any ideas of how to get lots of money fast, or get these things cheaper?! :D

Well AutoCad LT 2008 is about $900.00, but AutoCAD 2008 (which seems to be the required version) is $3995.00!). I really don't understand why any computer program needs to be that expensive.

Buy all of the parts and build your own. My Science teacher did that and that computer runs soooooo good. Plus, the parts are not that expensive. If you don't know how to build one, find someone to help or do it for you.

Yeah, I see that now. I'm not sure why they are so expensive. My company just bought a new Medical program that logs all of our business for several million. I'll never understand why it costs so much. Anyway, I'm sure you can take out a student loan of some sort.

Wait 10 years until it's all outdated and useless anyway, and pick it up at a MASSIVE discount.

I'm seeking my B. Arch in architecture school as well. I don't see why you are required to purchase the commercial versions of those programs. You should find out if the educational versions, which are virtually identical to the commercial versions, can be purchased instead. I was never required. My schools have provided any commercial software that was needed.

I have a similar predicament. I'm considering several entrepreneurial endeavors as well as three jobs and a side investment im making a with a friend of mine. All things considered I should raise the necessary funds by November. My advice to you is use what you've got, and never.... ever stop looking for new ways to make money.
