Oh an whats an oppenheimer?
 
Oppenheimer is a premier manufacturer, painter, of aircraft control panels, navagation equipment, etc. They also paint a lot of precision control panels for military aircraft.
 
Read the company description here:
 
On and, the HDD, I meant to write "RPM's", revolutions per minute.
FAST but, sorry, expensive.
 
Feeling down on yourself? Go shopping at Q-Mart for a little while.

Doesn't sound like Q-Town? Perhaps management should shop at Q-Mart.
That'll wake 'em up!
 
Financing permitting, get a HDD with some speed; i.e.: 10,000 or more mps.
 
For on-the-road laptops, a solid state HDD is on my wish list.
The solid state HDD's are expensive (today, price'll come down) use less power, generate less heat, and are fast opening programs and/or saving files too.
 
 
Tulip sounds a bit like Oppenheimer?

I have two Lenovo laptops, have owned "all the rest" at one time.
 
Lenovo is where I want to be running AutoCAD. I find the Lenovo doesn't hesitate at all, AutoCAD '07, 2D and 3D, excellent response.
 
Lenovo's service, should you ever need it, is excellent.
 
The W700 isn't too portable if you're moving around. A smaller screen will also increase battery (run time) life 'tween charges.  Star

Dammit!

So it wouldnt do anything, huh? Well that sux. What could I suggest to the puppeteers to make things quicker? Our WHOLE part library and file system is off a network...all through vault eventually, at least, thats what were told, lol
I sometimes wait at my 'un-responding' screen for up to 15-20 minutes for a fully adaptive assembly to update...agonizing!
Thats how I can post so much!! lol

As I understand it the performance gain will only work for localised files, i.e. over a network the bottleneck is the network....

1.upgrade the cpu from i7 720 to i7 820
or

2.upgrade the ram from 8gb 1066mhz to 12 gb ram 1066mhz 
or

3.upgrade the Hard Drive 500GB 7200RPM 3gb/s Cache 32MB to 128gb Solid State Drive Sata2 (its got one more 500gb hard-drive) and the ram from 8gb 1066mhz ram to 8 gb ram 1333mhz

And hey Kobus,
Tell me more about this 'solid state drive' being faster.
 
My company is looking into a server update, and maybe i can convince them that a 'solid state' hard drive would be better?
 
Currently when were working on large assemblies off the network (which reads from the server) I expirence painfully long adaptive part updating. Would this in fact improve using solid state file storage drives?
