1. WHAT KIND OF COMPUTER ? BY JACK SHELTON Hajd

2. Would a desktop or a portable computer be the most suitable for the following people and why? • Teacher : A teacher will need a laptop, computer, Ipad because then they can use it in any room and outside. I would recommend an apple ipad or the latest computer or laptops because it will be quick an up to date so you can access anything you need at any part of the school. A teacher may want to store a lot of work and all lot of software such as 4gigabytes worth of ram and Processor (CPU) to get up to date with the system. • News reporter : The laptop will be the suitable one for the news reporter because they can take it where ever they want and it will have the best system really good ram so they can access it where ever they go. When they take the laptop with them they can put all the reports straight onto the laptop instead of going back to there office an put them on there because the news reporters use a video recorder and a usb to put them straight to the computer. • Web designer : A web designer will use a computer or a laptop because they will have to access programmes on the computer than with a ipad or a iPhone the web designer may want to take photos and videos to send to the internet. I will recommend laptops and computers for the web designers because they will need to take a photo or a video and put it straight onto the computer so everyone can access it.

3. Doctor in a surgery : It would have to be a laptop or an Ipad because doctors and nurses need to put in medical details onto the systems. Also doctors need to store all the medical details so that the passions stay alive. • Traffic warden : A traffic warden is a non-warranted officer employed by a statutory authority in to provide your name and address when demanded by a traffic wardenyou would not need a laptop or a computer manly doctors , teacher , news reporter and web designer use computers or laptops because they don’t work in a office but they may want a phone that is like a laptop so that they can take photos and they may want to use a gps to find where they are going also they may want a ordinary phone to talk there other traffic wardens. They will need a jcb phone because if they drop it on the floor it would crack also it is waterproof.
