It is for academic work and does not need gaming capabilities.
Also any info on student/educational discounts would be appreciated.

For stuff like that, a $one thousand Dell probable can not shrink it. IIRC Adobe's extra contemporary stuff takes great component approximately Nvidia's CUDA API. you are going to to desire a minimum of a quad middle CPU (with hyperthreading if available) or hexacore CPU. And an exceptionally important video card besides. i don't think of a typical sub $one thousand Dell could have what you like

The best Dell you can get is the one you don't buy. Dells are pieces of junk.
If you must get a PC, get an HP. Or a Acer. Or a Shea. Heck, get an Emachines before you get a Dell... You would probably be better off with an old Tandy before getting a Dell.

This is going to sound like a really stupid answer....
but quite simply - DO NOT BUY DELL!
They have 2 different specs, one for businesses - and one for sale to the public. The public sale ones are 100% s***. and its very difficult to get hold of the business ones as they're generally only sold in bulk.
You'll probably think I'm talking absloute rubbish now, but honestly and truly don't buy dell - they just don't last. And normally when they do break or simply won't work - you lose all your work (never a good thing)
If you do go and buy one now.... YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
it doesn't matter how good it or others say it is. .. if it's dell - stay clear!

youd be better off buying a brick and a keyboard than buying a dell computer.

Why not design the pc right now your self - dell aloows you to decide what goes on your system.
This model typically costs around 400 pounds so have a look.
The name is dimention 5150.
