I am running Cinema 4d on my Dell l2.0 gig laptop that is a deskop replacement type with mobile graphics. It works well with Poser, also. My main 3d PC is a Gateway I bought stripped down at BestBuy (in USA) - it is a 3.4 gig P4 with the BTX motherboard and came with a gig of RAM and a 250 gig harddrive, good onboard sound, and a 128 Radeon PCI express graphics card with open GL. I have updgraded this PC with twpomore 250 gig hard drives, a five port USB card, and another gig of PC3200 RAM from Zipzoomfly.com - the cheapest at the time. Computers are easy to build or update yourself. Everything is Plug and Play and snap in. Not like computers of yore. Dual processors and AMD are also very good,  but not for Poser. For games. Ask Awadsk. He has a dual core AMD 4400, and Poser is still slow. I suggest getting a PC that is a full tower (big) and has plenty of room for expansion. Lots of open PCI slots, the new BTX motherboard. Room for more hard drives and so on. That way you can uypgrade it as you get the money. I am very happy with my PC, even though I have the horrible polipos virus riught now.  Good luck. I am a PC tech and web designer in the real world so IM me with any questions!!!!! Hugz, Sherrie
