What systems do illustrators use today?

Most of the big-time programs are cross-platform, but I’d say the majority of people that I’ve worked with use Mac OS. As far as hardware is concerned (i.e. if she needs a computer) you really can’t go wrong with a Mac now that you’re able to run Windows and OS X on the same system.

Hey, small world. We use RAMPage in our shop. A quick anecdote which leads to a larger point: Most of the designers I talk to who use PCs rather than Macs do it out of necessity; either they don’t feel they can afford a Mac powerful enough or their boss won’t buy them a Mac. But many wish they could work on a Mac because that’s what they leaned on. The point of this that, chances are, your niece’s classes will be taught by someone who learned on a Mac and still uses a Mac. Being the PC user in a class taught by and surrounded by Mac users won’t kill her but it might make some of the instruction and collaboration more difficult than it might be. But that’s all rank speculation on my part. The best bet is for her to find out what her teachers will be using/want her to use.
