I do use a workstation, that’s what the company provided. I prefer a desktop, it feels more comfortable to me. Usually has bigger screen, separate mouse, and tend to be faster when it comes to RAM and Processor, if it’s not it can be upgraded easier than a laptop. Laptops are great for their mobility but when working with a program like CAD that is so dependent a pointing device you would still have to have space to set up your laptop and have room for your mouse. PLUS I would prefer to leave my work at the office. Once you allow yourself to work at home it becomes hard to stop.

I think the most important thing to look at when choosing a program is what formats the program is compatible with. If you start expanding your client base and work with architects and engineers you want to be able to easily pass files back and forth without losing data and information.
