Background: Bobby is 19 and enrolled at West Virginia University. He is not particularly wealthy, but he will do whatever it takes to hurdle any obstacle in way of his musical career. Although he is trying to save as he already has a numerous amount of expenses, he is willing to sacrifice if it is necessary.

Computers under Consideration Dell - Inspiron Apple iMac

Pros/Cons of Dell Inspiron Price - The price is reasonable in relation to average laptop price range. Peripherals - Peripherals and accessories are not expensive if not cheap. RAM - 4 gigabytes of RAM will be enough you won’t have to worry about a slow computer. Monitor - Good monitor resolution at 1920 X 1080. Processor - Below or hovering around an average processor. Peripherals - Although they are not expensive, they are limited. Reviews- Reviews are nothing short of terrible by customers

C+ Dell Inspiron: Rating Although this computer is reasonable, Bobby is not necessarily limited by money, therefore, he does not have to sacrifice as much.

Apple iMac Processor: Intel 5th Generation Core i5; 2.8 gigahertz Monitor: 1920 X 1080; 21.5in Memory(RAM): 8 gigabytes Hard Drive: SATA; 1000 gigabytes Operating System: Mac OS Software: Itunes, Safari, and IOS Requirements For Software: Apple Device Price: $1,049.99 Peripherals: Magic Keyboard($99.00), Magic mouse($79.00), Apple SuperDrive ($79.00) Total Cost:$1,306.99

Winner: We picked the Apple iMac because although it is a little more expensive Bobby can’t afford to compromise quality. He is working with a little more cash from the beats he sells so this is necessary. The Apple iMac has double the RAM. Another plus is the processor speed at 2.8 gigahertz, and considering Bobby’s limited time schedule it is worth it. This computer’s memory is at 1000 gb and more than enough to save beats.
