Edited above post  just found out CAD software will run much Better  with windows 8 and then upgrade to windows 10.

Also if you have a high end graphics card, that would be ideal one for our students.

 

Need windows 8 or better computers

traderspoc, have you considered replacing Windows in favor of Linux running one of the free, open source CAD packages? The laptops will likely run faster and at the very least you will not be at the mercy of a temperamental internet connection. There are other benefits to be had and if you'd like to discuss them, send me a message.
