Welcome to Buying A Computer For Dummies — a book which assumes that you know nothing about a computer but are strangely compelled to buy one. If that’s you, you have found your book! This book is not a buyer’s guide. In it, you won’t find endless, boring lists of prices and products and useless part numbers. Instead, this book assumes that you need a computer for some reason. You’ll discover that reason and then read about how to find software to carry out that task. From there, you’ll match hardware to your software and end up with the computer that’s perfect for you
