Video card? Yeah, if you are playing games... AutoCAD is memory and CPU dempendant, unless you get a pro card (like a quatro) that will run with teh settign isn autocad. Other than that, use any old laptop. I run AutoCAD for work on my T64 1.8 witha gig of ram. If you are doing 3d, it might be a tad slower in the regen and renders, but not much.

Save the money and buy an acer or something other than a dell.. your gonna need it for the $6K price tag of ACAD.
