Hi I think it would be nice if Adobe staff could write a blog or have a page somewhere on their website where they can recommend their favourite laptops or desktops that they use to run Adobe programs on. I know they don't sell the computers themselves but it would be useful for Adobe customers to know what devices are going to perform well while running Adobe programs like Photoshop. I know you can find some articles online but it would be nice to know what Adobe recommends.

    Everyone has their own opinion. Start with meeting the basic system requirements (just do a google search). I have 2 machines - an old late 2012 iMac with 32gb RAM and 1GB graphics card that I use. It is no longer supported and some features are no longer available to me. I get some weird stuff happening when I use PS but I work around it. I also have a 2020 Macbook pro with 32gb RAM and 4gb graphics card - works great. More ram, better graphics, larger hard drive - those are your top 3 priorities.
