What to Know Before Buying a Computer

Before outlining what to look for when buying a computer. You first have to

know what you are going to be using your computer for. You also have to understand

that as much technology as you get or as much as you pay for your computer you are

going to realize that as time goes on that there will always be cheaper and better

equipment. What I am going to do is to draw an outline what I will do if I were looking to

buy a computer. The computer that I will buy would be a personal computer that I will

The first thing that I will look at would be what type of a PC (personal computer)

do I want. The PC that I will look into is the Dell Dimension XPS B1000R model.

The reason that I will recommend this model is because of it’s cheap price, it

Also has some features that I would use, good color and graphics and because of it’s 3

year warranty and because of the 24 hour 7 days a week telephone service that they offer.

One of the most important parts is the computers brain which is called the

microprocessor. Each microprocessor chip has a identification number on it that tells you

about that chip. The higher the number the faster the chip and the faster the chip the more

. . .

One popular way is to store

data is on a floppy disk. The PC that we have already chosen

has as one of it’s features a anti-viruse device.

I would make sure to get some application software such as word processing

software so that you can create documents, letters and memos. The monitor is a very citicle component of your computer so you are going to

have to feel comfortable with it. The printer that I

Recommend is the dot-matrix printer because it is cheaper then others and it is reliable

and the costs of replacement parts (ribbons and paper) are also cheaper.

“ It also doesn’t have the same amount of storage that windows 98 and it can’t run the

same time” . I would also get some

spreadsheet software. One of the most important features that your computer has is it’s memory. You might want to get multimedia software which is a combination of

different types of media(print ,audio ,graphics ,and animation) in one presentation.

If the PC comes with a modem make sure it’s up to your standards in all other important

areas Don’t let the free modem influence you” .

My choice would be windows 98 because it is the cheapest of the three also all the

new games work with windows 98. There are three main types

Of printers a dot-matrix printer, a inkjet printer and a laser printer.

RAM is this type of memory, it’s the work area where the computer holds data

and instructions while you’re working.

” Memory forms the computers workspace- the larger the available pool of memory, the

more work you can have going on at the same time without memory your processor is

useless” . There are many

different types of scanners that range in many different price ranges so you have to first

decide what are you going to do with your scanner.
