Choosing the Perfect Computer:
Introduction:

The Basic UserIf you use a computer for simple purposes such as typing documents, or just checking your email and searching the web, then you are the basic user. You will need a standard computer with an Intel
Pentium or Intel i3 at the most. Your computer won't lag with your standard everyday programs with those chips. Yous computer will run fine with the standard 4GB RAM.
