Know your needs before selecting e computer
MEDIA Unfamiliar jargon
and hyped-up advertising cam
paigns can make it more difficult
than ever to choose a home
computer, says Greta C. Vairo,
extension home economist with the
Penn State Extension Service. To
help you make a choice, she offers
the following tips:
You should have at least a
partial understanding of
microcomputer technology before
you invest in a home computer.
These powerful tools are designed
to be used in highly individual
ways. The more you know about
how they work and what they can
do, the easier it will be to match a
system to your needs.
Familiarize yourself with
jargon. If you wish to buy ac
cessories, learn the strengths and
weaknesses of particular devices
and how well they work with
specific computers.
Consider your own requirements
carefully. Limitations of an
inappropriate machine will only
surface once you take it home.
Research your choices in trade
magazines, books with computer-

make the final decision.
Before you decide on the hard
ware, identify your needs and
those of all potential users in your
family. Typical home computer
applications include word

-• To help you determine which
models you should consider, try to
project what you will do with
computer in a year’s time.
When deciding how much to pay
for a computer, balance your
needs against your budget. Prices
vary and there is no best computer
for everybody.
Remember there are other
expenses, too. You’ll need to
budget for software in addition to
the basic hardware. Some home
computers come equipped with
software and some dealers may

include software when you buy the
computer. Investigate before you
buy.
Think about the other expenses
that may accompany a home
computer purchase. You will need
blank storage disks or cassette
tapes and a small TV set or video
monitor. You may also need a
desk, lamp and chair.
Set aside money for a sub
scription to a home computer
magazine, a few books or a class to
help get you started. Save some
money for last-minute surprises
like printer cable or power filter.
Also remember to set aside some
time to leam to use your new
computer. Other factors will also
influence your purchase. These
include planned future enhan
cements such as additional
memory and available financing.
Compatibility with other systems
is also important to many com
