I'm guessing you mean $3500?

Go for a Mac Pro. It's the only machine out there that will let you run Mac OS X, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux and UNIX. There are lots of engineering firms that are Mac-only, and some high end software that's UNIX-only, etc. A Mac will give you the versatility you need.

Hello:

35000? Is that $35000 US Dollars? You could buy a super server for that kind of money. Did you mean $3500 US dollars or do you have 35000 of another currency?

Almost every major computer manufacturer now has a decent notebook PC in the $600 to $800 price range that would be great for an engineering student. If you also play PC games, especially the intense graphics games, you will need more than $600. I suggest looking at DELL. And if you don't need Windows, I suggest looking at the DELL machines with Ubuntu Linux preinstalled. Unless you absolutely have to have Windows for some reason, Linux is an excellent choice for engineering students and professionals.

Cheers!

Atleast 2.8Ghz
1GB RAM

if its 35000 then you could afford a workstation with quad cpu config with all the harddrives you want and quad sli.
if you mean 3500 then desktop wise you can afford whatever you want especially if you build it yourself(which is suggested over brandname)
laptop wise i like dell for major brand, but there are lots of smaller manufacturers like asus, ibuypower, etc.
newegg.com has a lot of the smaller brands on it.
i am an engineering student as well and i was told to have a laptop for school but so far i havent actually needed a laptop, you really just need a desktop.

Go for a HCL Beanstalk. They have some wonderful dual core options within that price that too with a 19" Wide Screen TFT Monitor. It also has a DVD Super Multi, the all new Vista Home Premium and some cool software to go with it. Go for it baby, and you will never repent.

student of BE ,..if elektronix ,ETC, or computer ??
okey
here it is a standard pc configuration:

processor =3.0 (approx. value)GHz of any one dual core /
core 2 duo).

RAM =512 /1 GB

HDD =200 GB SATA ( WD(my personal recomendation) )

Mother Board =intel 945 /946 (no idea of the performance
of 101Mo Bo)

Input devices :

Keyboard Internet / Multimedia of your choice

Logitech's product are good but can search for others only if you want costly for higher quality.

Mouse obiously it will be of same range as keyboard but you can also opt for wireless mouse alternate usage devise of keyboard.

Output / I/P &O/P device:

ODD =DVD writer 'sony' is the best.

Moniter =LCD 21" of any reputed company .

Printer (if you need) = TVS E any product.

Software:
Linux / Windows Xp (professional) dont go for 'Home edition'.

antivirus = Mc Afee / Kaspersky.

Ms office xp

media player 'itune'

Note: Linux is a different type of non user friendly O/S coz it require some practice but it is more safe in case of usage of internet from virus threat.
make 4 partition of HDD (just a suggesion for student)

Tips :
those are the config's for assembled pc but you can also search for similar on Branded PC .
may be possible that i'hd missed something here you can contact me any time.
Branded PC IBM ,
but dont purchase pc of LG , HCL , Sahara like this many company offer bundle prizes (garbage).; creats many problem.

Purchasing tips:

ask for intel original motherboard .intel chipset motherboard means it may be asus, asrok, etc..(incase assembled)

some dealer do not provide whole package that comes with branded pc.
dont purchase UPS ,headphone ,mice, web camera, pen drive ,external memory, joystic, game / software package,furniture etc. AT SAME SHOP .(even if its your relatives or friends shop but you can some internal card/ devices{technical reason}, {comercial reason}).

Wow. If you have that kind of money to spend that is great! You can look to find a system with a large hard drive and plenty of ram for your engineering projects.

Go to the manufacture websites at gateway or at dell and custom build your system.

Good luck
