I have loaded both on to a Asus with 1gb ram for a user to use at home, it was just slow. Good luck

I like Thinkpads, expensive, so I get them used, the 4th of the 5 laptops now. About a dual display laptop with tablet on palm rest area. Dual HDD in a RAID layout.

umm thanks for the reply I am aware of that, I will be running flow simulations, heat transfer simulations etc on it as well...but I think a i5 running at 2.6GHz can handle that fine.. :D
