In my CAD class, the instructor requires explicitly AutoCAD because “that’s the industry standard.” As we know, AutoDork are a bunch pricks who refuses to get up from Microslop’s lap, so I am in a tight spot rn.
Should I use a VM to run or would ACAD Web do the trick? Honestly, I can even try to push my luck with another CAD program that supports .dwg files.
Yep, a very hostile country against its citizens.
Idk how bad shipping/vat/crossing the eurozone border is but Cheap laptops that will get the job done with linux: dell/hp/lenovo business class models (precision/lattitude, whatever hp calls their stuff, t/p/x series respectively) with 3rd/4th gen Intel processors are still viable in 2026.
Hell I was doing cad work on a 3rd gen intel laptop from 15 years ago last year (small models only, of course!)
Hope you find one that suits your needs.
Importing anything above €27 is out of the question here, the prices increases exponentially, and there’s a high risk of getting it seized in the border for govt to resel it in a higher price later. As I said earlier, I can work with VM or dualboot.
