I was issued a new computer at work, a Dell Latitude 630 to replace my old 600 whose warranty had expired. Nothing fancy, it works very well for my needs.

The mousepad didn't work either. I had to plug one into the USB all the time. More importantly I was all out of hard drive.

Little people, big world.

Don't worry, we'll take good care of your computer. It will be as good as new.

1977 Desktop Computer by Joanna Benavidez

Desktop computers were used for class subjects such as math, science, history, and engineering. This allowed students to deal with situations that one most likely would run into in the real world. One computer program that was used for education in history was The Oregon Trail. This game was about the route that the pioneers took to the Pacific Northwest. The students traveled along the rivers and states that the pioneers took. The game also included the illness that the pioneers would have encountered and the students needed to heal them.

The reason I chose Desktop computers is because they really have not been part of education until the most recent years. Computers are now involved in most classes and is part of their teaching process. The relevance of computers is that students now can access information quicker and prepare their essays in more of a professional way. This also allows teachers to be able to organize the schedule faster than before. Computers are emerging and evolving so quickly and they are involved in education in many ways. One way is allowing people like me to be able to attend higher education from my home.
