Hello, 

Can anyone recommend the ideal computer ($2000 or less) to use the adobe suite on? I plan on buying multiple computers and don't want to make the mistake of ordering one that is compatiblle with Adobe Suite but doesn't run well. 

Thanks for your help!

    All of the Apple Silicon based computers run everything in the Adobe Createive Cloud All Apps plan very well.

    Based on what your budget allows for, I'd go with 16GB of RAM and the largest internal Flash storage that comes in under $2,000.

    in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

     

    p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.
