What to look for? What Makes a Good Computer? What do u need to know about and consider
Well of course you want a computer that works properly and it is easy to use.
Sometimes you can find a good computer that has many features.
Things to look for in a computer are:
RAM-Random access Memory - the more RAM you have the better the computers performance is.
Hard Drive - the bigger the hardware size is (usually a 80GB is best) the better. This is where all the programs are stored
Ports- look around the computer that has at lease 4 usbs at the back and 2 at the front. Sometimes having a port for a memory card (for a digital camera) is also good to look for in a computer.
Brand Names- brand name computer are usually best so look for things like Dell, Gateway, Song etc
Monitor- there are two types of monitors the CRT & LCD. CRT stands are cathode Ray Tube this onces are much cheaper but it is big. An LCD computer has great resolution and colour but much more expensive. I think that an LCD is better then an CRT even though its a bit expensive it has better quality.
CPU- this is like the 'brain' of the computer. All the calculations are made here.
Those are some things u should look for in a computer when buying. Make sure it has good performance and easy to use. Make sure u buy a computer that is worth it :)
