Actually you're too weak to come with a comeback as you realize that you don't have shit on me. You're defeated with the lack of credentials you have on me. Go cuddle up with your boyfriend mntadewd and take comfort in that.

I personally got just an on-sale gaming laptop, ryzen7, 16g, 1tb ssd, dedicad graphics, cost me 1200 2 years ago, does just fine in fusion, SW(while trial lasted), as well as automation software like TIA portal. Unless you are very very corporate I doubt you need workstation laptop, get good CPU/GPU and upgradable ram/storage and you are good to go. Having it 16-17" also helps in cad. not squinting as much as on 13-14-15
Man...this thread is waaaay past computer suggestions.

I only managed 2 pages. TLDRMan...this thread is waaaay past computer suggestions.
Naaah man, just don't need a comeback. You already showed your ass talking about qualifying for financing on a 3k purchase and saying you didn't want to "get into debt on something I likely won't use enough". I mean, those were literally your own words, you can go back and read it yourself. I don't know what more credentials I need besides the guy I accused of being next to broke as he himself saying that he's next to broke. Personally, I couldn't give a bakers fuck about your finances, and if you read the entirety of my post I actually back you up saying that the Xeons run just fine for CAD/CAM applications. You read only a sample of my post and got all bent out of shape about one goddamn sentence which was simply affirming something that you already fuckin said, and then jumped a respected forum members shit for not reading your post thoroughly enough before he decided to respond. Which is to say, if your limited brain power has trouble computing, you did the exact thing you accused someone else of doing.
So, in summation, the credentials you have posted by your own volition on this forum show that not only are you broke, you're also a hypocrite and a complete fuckhead.
Naaaah man, you did read what I said, you just don't know how to respond to it, because it's full of truth about your bitch ass. If you didn't, others seem to be.
Wow, you agreed with something I said about Xeon working fine for running 3D software! "Thanks for having my back bro, you owned up to a fact that I said! We're homies now, bro! You're my dawg, man! BFF, and shit!" Grass grows, water's wet, pussy's also wet.... unless you're involved. These are all just facts. You owned a truth. Props! You want a cookie, my homeboy who takes my back? You likely use Xeon, which gives you reason to defend it. Then like a female you start owning a lie by claiming that I said I'm broke. I never once claimed to be broke, I'm just not frivolous with my money. I'm far from broke my dude. One reason for that is I try not to make big impulse buys. Same with cable. You like cable companies F'in you in the A? Likely a stupid question as of course you do, but I'm not giving you close to $200 a month for fairly basic cable even though I can afford it if I want to. We replaced it with Sling, but I don't watch TV like that, and rarely use it.
Maybe you're just young and ignorant (stupid) to the fact that calling a working man "broke" is a major insult. Or maybe you just like to start shit with random people on the internet. You start seriously accusing most men I know that work hard to provide a comfortable, and secure living for them, and their families of being "broke" to their faces, that will get you into a conflict with that man real quick, and they'll test your gangsta for some BS like that. If you had the balls to tell most tool makers I know to that they're broke to their faces, that's not going to go well. Even if you say it to a more passive dude, that will let that go, next time you come ask him to help you out, he ain't try and help you because he doesn't respect you, because you disrespected him. There are MF'ers who will literally shoot you over disrespecting them like that. Men function on respect. You disrespected that man. His mentality to you if FU. You're seriously accusing him of being broke, while he's been working hard for years to make money. Do you not think that calling a woman who tries to keep up with her figure, and eats health, and goes to the gym every day, fat, do you not think she would find that insulting, and feel disrespected? You calling a hard working man broke is kind of insulting like that to a him.
Does your mommy and daddy pay for you to live? Do you honestly not have a grasp of what I'm telling you? Are you some kid in college trying to get an engineering degree, and you're on here because you take a CAD class and think you need to run your mouth while your parents are footing your bill to bar hop with your preppy college homeboys who think you're cool, but you beat off the porn on your expensive computer because while you think you're cool, girls don't find you to be cool, because you're a nerd. Not being cool, is not cool. Fuck what this modern society tries to tell you. Why do you want to be a nerd, or dork, or whatever term you want to put to a loser? You should strive to be a winner. Trying to be accepted by cool friend who have fun, and get girls, and aren't viewed as being weird geeks is a good thing. All that, "when you're older, and working for a living, you're going to be their boss, and making more $, and driving nicer cars, and getting more female attention" is largely BS. Don't let trying to be cool, or fitting in with everyone define you. Develop your own morality, and be your own man, but don't just look in the mirror and think, "I'm just a geeky, nerd who does well in school, but also play video games online all day, when I'm not using my phone to hunt Pokemon," or whatever you young losers do.
You need to start acting like a man, and not a kid, or a female. You're either knowingly lying, or you're stupid. Me deciding to not buy a $3,100, but to buy a $570 dollar computer as it easily does what I need it to do is not me saying I'm broke. It may be inferring that I'm trying to save money by not spending way more $ than I need to for something that's not that important to me, but that's not me saying I'm broke, so everytime you make that claim about me saying something that I in no way did is is you lying. Men trying to push or own a lie is a bitch move. (And I mean bitch as in some female, hoodrat, trick whore trying to push a lie type shit) Using terms like "fuckhead" is some loser, needs to get laid, and out of your parents financial protection, and make you own living type shit.
BTW I could give a F how well respected any member on here is. That MF'er disrespected hisself by not owning up to his mistake. If you want to answer a question and participate in a thread, then you need to make sure that you read it well enough to get a good understanding about what's being asked. Then when you get corrected about something that you said that shows that you obviously didn't take the time to read what you commented on, the thing to do isn't to try and throw off the blame on me. He should of said, "my bad man. I didn't read your posts well enough, and blah, blah, blah." But no, it was, "well, if you would have said this, and written that, then I would have recommend this." He was too prideful to own up to him giving bad advice, (and over a day after the thread was created BTW) and he tried pushing fault of his ignorance on me, when everything he said that I should have said, was absolutely said in my first 2 posts. Then he wants to start throwing all these little, "passive aggressive," bitch ass comments at me, calling me a hobbyist and all this BS to try to be slick when I've been in this trade for nearly 20 years working as everything from a tool maker, die builder, programmer, CNC operator, etc. That's gets you no respect from me, I don't give a F what's written under you username, what your post count is, or how many years you've been on here. But then you fanboy want to defend him because that's your internet homeboy. Sad thing is that y'all even recognized that he was wrong, and checked him on his poor reading skills, before going right back to defending him like a bunch of punks defending another mans mistake. If me defending myself on a butt F'ing internet forum again some "senior" members looking to justify their stupid mistakes by coming at me, and attacking me on here doesn't sit well with you or them, then F you MF'ers. I don't give a fuck. I'll argue with you until your blue balls find relief from someone other than yourself. Besides others are finding this as entertaining, which it is. This is a fun thread. You MF'ers are easy. You have really nothing to stand on against me other than some made up lies.
I'm not reading that whole novel. Your shit needs to come with cliff notes.
You're also pretty goddamn thick, so I'll spell your own inference out for you.
You opting to buy a computer for the fraction of the cost can carry a different meaning depending on what you say and how you say it.
If you say "I'm going to buy a $500 computer instead of a $3100 one because I want to save money" that doesn't give anyone any look into your financial status besides maybe thinking this is a frugal guy. That's the inference you're talking about in the above quote, yeah? That's not what you said.
If you say "I'm going to buy a $500 computer instead of a $3100 one because I don't want to go into debt over it" the reader's most likely assumption is that you don't have the capital readily available to make a $3100 purchase. And at 40 years old, if you don't have 3k laying around to make a purchase, then buddy, you're broke. I think you'd probably even agree with me on that. Well, this is the inference you made. If you need me to hold your hand on every single goddamn thing, I'll point it out directly. Post 7, the last sentence of your first paragraph. Actually, here, I'll just screendump it and post it so you don't have to go searching.
You readily admit that would be going into debt on a 3k purchase. Your reason for doing that is your reason, but you talk about inference, what's the most likely inference being made?
Listen...your own shit is your own business, I really couldn't give less of a fuck, but I can say without question that if I wanted to or had to make a 3k purchase there wouldn't be any sort of debt involved at all. There would be no bullshit financing or credit card involved. It'd be straight cash.
As a grown man, if I ever found myself in a position where I needed or wanted to spend 3k at the drop of a hat and I had to worry about someone carrying that debt over me, then yeah, I'd consider myself broke. If you can't buy it twice you can't afford it. The vehicles I have don't matter. The equity in the house doesn't matter. The 401k balance doesn't matter. It's not readily available capital.
So now, please tell me now that my position should be crystal clear to you, am I lying or am I stupid?
You're actually talking some real shit here and not just BS'ing. Financing something for $3K is kind of dumb. That is one way people stay in debt, with little money saved and worrying about their next paycheck going into their check on Thursday night instead of Friday night so they can pay a bill or something. I do not like financing something of this nature, but it just isn't important enough for me to want to drop $3K out of my checking for a computer that's way more capable than anything I need it for and that won't get used but maybe 2-3 times a week, if that. That was an impulse buy that I generally would not make, but customizing a computer and having it built for you with all these modern, high-end GPU's and CPU's, large SSD's and a bunch or RAM sounds cool, and it is, but it's just not something I need so I decided to cancel that order and buy a less expensive refurbished computer.
If I took all the money I have in everything from my checking, savings, investments, 401K, etc I could buy 55+ computers costing $3K, but then I would be broke. Some people I work with claim to struggle to keep more than $3K in their checking, whentheyI make probably at least as much as me? You need to make an effort to save money, and build up enough funds to live comfortably/securely. My credit score checked at 821 when I was approved with Dells financing. That's because I always pay my bills on time and don't get over my head on things I buy. Living check to check is for the birds. When I make large purchases they are intentional and planned out in most cases. I waited 1.5 years to buy my tractor new in 2018 to get what I wanted for a price that I thought was fair. I shopped for about 4.5-5 months for my new truck to get what I wanted for a good price in todays market. This refurbished computer I bought it pretty nice. I have decent graphics, 64 GB RAM, a half a terabyte of harddrive. (Even though I was told it was a whole terabyte) This thing runs way smoother than the old computers we ran Mastercam on at my last job. This thing is responsive, and programs like Fusion3D seem to be no problem for it. I need no more computer than this. This isn't the fastest computer out there, but it certainly isn't slow by the standards I'm used to. Also props to the people I bought it from. While I was disappointed that it didn't have that 1TB SSD they claimed, I am happy with the condition of this computer. Either this was a very lightly used unit that was taken care of, or they did a great job refurbishing it, as it looks and feels pretty much like a new computer.

Why are you so emotionally invested in other people's opinions of you? If you didn't care, you would have moved on days ago.

I thought I'd check back in this thread since there's been numerous replies. Yikes, I can't believe how it spiraled down and away from the OP. So many people seem to have a penchant for making it about themselves rather than the OP. Kind of surprised the Ban Hammer hasn't struck the lot of us lol.
No mods look at this part of the forum. Its the wild west here!

This is so entertaining. I hope the moderators don't stumble across this. All we need now is a couple posts saying that Fusion 360 is the greatest thing since sliced bread and this is going to go nuclear.

Ok, I was just curious since Linux is android based . You can download a bare bones OS free and then add what you need to operate, unlike windows which comes loaded with a lot of memory gobbling systems that you may not need . If you have an old laptop running slow with windows 7 you can download linux OS free and give it a run . https://ubuntu.com/download. You can either partition your hard drive and run duel systems or dump windows completely .You don't have to use command line much any more so it's a lot easier for most people to use linux now.
