Hello all. My GF is starting graphic design school and needs some equipment like a good drawing tablet and a laptop good enough to run Adobe and whatnot. Some of her classes got moved up and we have way less time to save that expected. The specs her teacher sent us are kind of beefy, so I'd need to spend $500 for a computer, and around $200 for a drawing tablet. I have like $300 to spend right now. Any suggestions at all on what to do? We need to get everything in a week. I'm scared of going used because her current laptop was a used one I purchased for $250 and it can not handle the applications she needs at all. I've been thinking of applying for credit cards other than asking family to borrow some money. Put her current laptop up for sale and have been thinking about loan apps and whatnot as well.
Graphic design may not be a thing that is discussed here, but you guys have helped my ass on all kinds of things. Hopefully someone has some suggestions. Thank you!
