I'm buying a lenovo ideapad p400 touch later today because i dislocated my knee yesterday leaving me immobile and unable to use my pc and with research it has an i7, 1tb storage (local disk C i think that's HD), and it has integrated graphics (intel HD graphics 4000) so everything so far seems like it would be supported but i only have $150 MAX to spend on a laptop for illustrator for the meantime

    16 GB of RAM is the bare minimum. Illustrator will only run well if you do not plan to use anything complex (that includes 3D)
