Autocad vs autocad lt for a tablet

[Anonymous]

Im going to be running one of these on a tablet to do minimal drafting and was curious if one is easier on the machine then the other. If i have the full version of autocad and am only using it to draft small 2d projects will it run the same as if i had autocad lt doing the same drafts?

neither are optimized for a tablet yet

you still need a mouse and keyboard to make use of both programs for the most part

no Autocad will probably use more resources not much than autocad LT

Ok thanks, i have a 2 in 1 tablet with windows 8.1 and it runs Autocad `student version` fine for what im doing but i did notice when a draft gets larger it tends to run a little slower. Was mainly checking if Autocad LT would run it any better then the full version or if the difference is so minimal that the LT purchase would be a waiste for now.

It's the same core program for both variants, so you will see little speed gain between the two.
Tablets are just not designed for the horsepower AutoCAD/LT require so expect slowness.
