What general solution or form factor do you need? What size and shape of a computer do you need? Dell and HP both list options like Laptop & Mini or Desktops & All-in-Ones. And once you get to each area of the site, you have more choices: laptop, netbook, desktop, tablet etc. Which best meets your computing needs and why?
Once you've decided on the form factor, the question focuses on what class of machine. What sort of laptop? Dell has Inspiron, Studio, Studio XPS, Alienware, Adamo. HP has Everyday Computing, High Performance and Envy. Similarly, the netbooks and desktops have different classes of machines as well. Explore into each and get a feel for which class meets your needs. Once you have an idea, explain why you selected the class of machine that meets your needs? How and why does it do so?
Looking within the class of machine, you'll find several base models from which you can choose. For example, on Dell.com, within the Studio and Studio XPS class of laptops, Dell offers the Studio 14, Studio 15, Studio 17, and Studio XPS 16. Which of the base models in the class you chose best meets your computing needs? Why?
-I'm going with a Dell Inspiron 15, has a 15.6 widescreen led display. This best meets my needs because its mobile and it can perform all the functions of a PC. I also like the large widescreen for viewing videos and movies.
-I chose to go with the Inspiron model because of its capabilities and a pretty reasonable price. I also can upgrade hardware in various areas (i.e. processor, RAM, hard drive) to make this model perform even more efficient.
-I chose the Inspiron 15 model because it will best suit my needs. This will be plenty of computer for me. All I really use it for is school, socializing, and itunes. I do watch movies from time to time and this will be a plenty big enough screen for that. Also I carry my laptop around with me at times and to go with a larger model I would add weight to an already heavy backpack.
