INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTER IT-100 FINAL PROJECT

I choose a notebook computer over a desktop computer and a tablet computer because it’s portable and stationary, has a keyboard and a monitor and is powered by batteries. My decision is based on needs, price, and similarity. A notebook computer will help me get my work done not only for school but for business purpose as well. Notebook computers are portable, thin, and lightweight. They also take up less space and are easier to transport from room to room and place to place. My decision also are based on finance, budget, and saving money. I don’t need something fancy; I just need something that will get the work done and help me manage my funds in the process. A desktop computer holds the same similarity as a notebook computer but a desktop computer are built heavier than a notebook enabling me to carry it from place to place and will take up much space trying to transport it around. To me a tablet computer seems to serve the same purpose as my smart phone and a good tablet computer can be pretty pricey. There are many new tablet computers that you can get with a keyboard connection, but it looks like a mini netbook with the same feathers. Tablet computer has touch sensitive screen where you would have to use a styles or your fingers. My smartphone have the similar features so I really don’t have the need for a tablet computer. I can say since consumers are coming up with many different tablets, if I choose to get one in the future I will plan on saving because the price of value will decrease.
