a ) Computer Configuration A . Since graphics require the processing of large programs , it is important to have a sizeable RAM . In addition to this , since the most important in the scenario is the print-outs , it is advisable to use the laser printer with 1200 DPI to ensure high quality print-out graphics

b ) Computer Configuration B . The computers in scenario b are mainly used for word processing , and the programs used to run the applications occupy 24 MB . To ensure fast processing of the commands and the applications for word

processing all at the same time , the computer should have a large RAM such as the 1 GB in Computer Configuration B . In addition , the speed of the computer is slightly high , which is 3 .06 GHz

c ) Computer Configuration C . Since the scientific programs are run for many hours , it is important to ensure that the speed of the computer can keep up with the length of time that it needs to operate . Therefore , the computer should have a high clock rate , thus 5 GHz in Computer Configuration C

d ) Computer Configuration A . The main use for the computer in this scenario is to print large amounts of . Therefore , it is important that the printer is able to keep up with this need . Computer Configuration A provides for this because the printer in this package prints the highest number among the three , which is 20 PPM

a ) Recordable Optical Discs . It is advisable to use recordable optical discs in this situation because CD 's and other discs are easier to store , especially if a company is planning to store thousands of data throughout the years . The information copied in these optical discs are easy to label and store in a certain storage area for future retrieval

b ) Magnetic Hard Disks . The Airline Reservation System is very important in the business . The system stores flight schedules , trips booked cancelled , delayed flights , etc . In this type of situation , magnetic hard disks are more advisable to use because it can store at a high capacity and information can be retrieved and changed easily

c ) Recordable Optical Discs . It is best to use recordable optical discs to store the information that you need to provide for the employees because its capacity is just right to store the data needed and it is easier to give away to the employees . They can take it anywhere and access the information anytime

d ) Flash Memory USB Drive . This gadget is just as easy to carry anywhere and the capacity of the flash memory USB drive is enough to carry ordinary documents like word documents or power point presentations anywhere . You can plug it to any USB drive and access the information right away

e ) Magnetic Hard Disks . Since the business is only accessible through the internet , and uses texts and graphical information to keep it running , it is best to use magnetic hard disks because you can store and access texts and graphics anytime...
