Question
I want to buy a laptop to run only CS3.. to keep it seperate from my desktop..  
What laptop should I consider?  I've read Dells are not good for photoshop.  I don't know how much memory and stuff to make sure it runs smooth

Answer
Hi Marcella,

I personally prefer the mac for running my apps. I don't dislike Windows, but it does tend to have a lot more issues with their operating systems than with Macs. For memory on a Mac, you can't go wrong maxing it out. Even the recommended system requirements for either Mac or Windows is just enough to run it so I always double their recommendations.

Thanks
