[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 519521, member: 6277"] Laptops generally don't have the horsepower to run Photoshop and Lightroom. Just about any modern desktop will do a pretty good job. I would go with a minimum of 8GB of RAM, 16GB would be better but make sure it is upgradable to at least 32. You can really go overboard with all sorts of options but a good basic desktop will get you started.
