Great for Design Engineers using Autocad 15 and LT

I purchased the computer a little worried if my design and modelling software would run in Windows 10: Autocad 15, Autocad LT 13, my old early windows based engineering software, the new Dialux EVO. To my pleasant surprise it does run them all as a breeze. Notable exception was with Dialux 4.12 where I had to turn off the dwg visualization when viewing 3d plant layouts because of sloooow screen response.
Please be aware that if you want a battery life over 5 hours you beed to lower the screen resolution to 1680 x blah. Also you beed to change the desktop wallpaper and screen colors (windows theme) to a dark one...that is eliminate as much unnecesary white brightdrom your screen.
Super fast to turn on and turn off. I had to activate the HIBERNATION mode at the Control Panel settings.
My huge complaint is not about the computer itself, but of Windows 10 atrocious mail program...not intuitive at all. I prefer to synch and download all my emails in the hard disk. So I had to download the old veteran Windows Live Mail... but Windiws 10 does not let me use the drag and drop feature in Live Mail so I have to attach the file via file exploring.
The computer itself is gorgeous. The dark colored HP Envy has a more professional look than the silver one.
No complaints about the Radeon processor or the integrated AMD Fx GPU, as it runs my engineering software normally. Except Dialux 4.12 as I mentioned before.
I havent used the computer for RENDERING yet.
A very fast 7200 rpm hard disk may be one of its best features.
