<p>I wouldn’t get any of the “recommended” bundles through the eStore. They are all seriously underpowered for the price and Case offers a lot of software for free that you can download. Think of it like the “offer” that was on your New Student Checklist about linens and bed things. The bundles were expensive just for convenience. If you’re going into engineering you need something better. Frankly that E5520 with only 2GB of RAM is a rip-off.</p>
