well maybe a little photoshop and illustrator as well but i figured flash might be a little more taxing.
no touch screen. the laptops ive been looking at were i5 around 2 ghz with about 4 gbs of ram and 500 gb
hdd running windows 7 or 8 no touch screen and the
size varies on the screen between 15.6 and 17
i5 will definitely be enough to run all three (go for the new gen).
4GB Ram in the sweet spot for RAM.
Screen Size is your preference.
ALSO, go for the best res possible and talk to the guy concerning color quality of each display because the quality of the display matters ALOT. If you have a bad display, especially in a laptop, you're stuck with it AND photoshop, flash, etc. Require you to use color (hopefully) and hopefully you want people to see the colors the way you want them to see them.
