Dell Laptop Vs. Mac Laptop By Sabrina Denmark
Greetings to all my name is Ms. Denmark I am a paraprofessional who is employed by the Board of Education. My major is Instructional Technology. The assignment given to me by my professor involves finding a suitable computer/laptop that is to be used in your classroom for a specific function. In order for this task to be completed I must get approval from a direct supervisor to purchase the right computer that will be effective for this assignment. This assign project will be approved based on the price breakdown, a detail description of software and hardware, and it’s many functioning. Once this decision is made I must define a reason why I choose this computer to be the best choice. “This project will not be approved based on the popularity of the computer.” (As was stated by the professor who has given the assignment)

DELL VS. MAC Dell pricing is $464.99 with free shipping. Mac Pricing is in store value of $199.00 with @ discount of 34% off.
CONCLUSION In conclusion throughout this given task searching on the internet for which laptop will be the most effect was kind of difficult giving the circumstance. This decision made it rather difficult since I had to meet a deadline. Both computers are effective for the classroom setting, despite the fact that the pricing makes a huge difference, however I must go with the computer that will give a great performance for the classroom students. This laptop must have excellent sound, speed, graphics, multimedia, digital video, audio and data transferring with internet speed and connection. There is other hard and software that I do search for in a laptop like memory and storage and certain kinds of programs or data. However this does not define all of the tasks that I aspect from a computer. My choice of computer is the Mac. Although the Dell have more features and cost more to purchase The Mac features will be more beneficial for our digital students.
