Hi all. I'm a new member trying to determine which SP3 to purchase as a graphic design student. With the plethora of tests and benchmarking going on with the various processors, can someone tell me which ones I should be looking at to tell me how well a computer will handle the Adobe CC...

Thanks. This brings up a very good question. What are the tests/benchmarks that a person should look at who is concerned with how a computer will fare in the Adobe CC apps? I have no idea besides the PCMark8 suggestion this post makes.

Thanks a bunch for this. This is really the direction that I am leaning in but trying to keep an open mind. I am so pleasantly surprised by how the SP1 met all of my needs (even with old gen i5), but know that I am really just starting to get into all of the Adobe programs in depth. Yes, I am...

Thanks for posting. I have been on the fence about getting this one or the black ostrich. I've noticed in this and other pics I've seen of the black leather that it seems to show smudges and finger oils. Do you find that to be true? I REALLY love this look! :) Thanks for your help.

Great info. Thanks!

Thanks so much for posting this! I have been on the fence on getting the black ostrich or the black leather Combo2 for my SP3. I think you may have just sold me on the ostrich. Pics of the black leather seem to always show finger grease/oils and smudges. Do you feel that the black ostrich...

Well, I finally bit the bullet and joined a forum. I've found that I am constantly coming back to these groups for info so thought it was time to join. Thanks to you all for the wisdom and help you provide. :) As the subject suggests, I have been pouring through these threads trying to...
