One of my business partners is a rocketman... he is constantly jetting off to meet with clients in other cities, and even other countries. While he is on the road he really needs a high powered mobile workstation laptop so he can use CAD and Revit. We have tried a few of the more common off the shelf systems and they all have the same problems, they max out with too little RAM and they have too weak of graphics cards.
I've seen a few real tanks of systems in the 17" size that come with up to a K5100M Quadro and 32gig of RAM, but he really wants a 15" form factor. I realize that whatever we find him is most likely going to be a cinder block of a laptop, but that is the price we have to pay for power I assume.
Anyone here have any input?
We have already tried a Macbook Pro top of the line (bad idea... great form factor terrible performance) and a Dell M3800 Precision Mobile Workstation (topped out with a K1100 quatro and only 16gb of RAM).
