Operating system
processor
type (model and number of cores)& Ghz
RAM
hard drive size (of all drives)
The ports you have – usb (2 or 3 Firewire, thunderbold etc)
Do you have a graphics card? if so what size and type? (laptops probably dont have a dedicated card)

compare with a new pc from dell? or another from pcworld! and remember that xbox 360 is getting old… Just like us all 🙂

Senior computing class

On a weekly basis 2 of you will be updating this blog with the work that has been covered in the week.

This way – both you and your parents will know if you have any homework and what work has been covered incase you miss anything  🙂

You will be working in threes for a 2 week period to keep the blog up to date

Good luck

Mr Stagg
