Question

Dell laptops not supported on Windows 10 for Creo?

I am looking at the documentation for Creo 4 and Creo 5.  There are no Dell laptops that are on Windows 10 supported for Creo4/5.  Did I miss something in those documents?

 

It also doesn't list ANY laptops in the Creo 6 document.

 

What is going on???

Nevermind.  Our company has been away from Dell's for a while.  Lenovo....yuck.

 

I assumed it still had the M in the name.  The new model numbers are just 4 digits. 7530, 7710, etc.

Keep in mind that getting on this list means the vendor had to supply each system to PTC and then pay them thousands of dollars to "certify" each of them.  For some vendors it's simply not worth it.  We've had much better performance using custom machines built by Gruman Creations than we ever had from Dell.  We still use Dell everywhere else (Servers, desktops, etc.), but for U.S. based CAD users we are exclusively Gruman.

    By the way, Gruman doesn't currently offer laptops, so if I needed one of those I'd look at Boxx.

      Thank you for that but our IT dept will not go for custom built computers.
