My Dream Computer

I am a Kindergarten teacher in this county and I have found the best computer for my classroom. The computer that would be best for my students would be the HP desktop PC computers because they are a reasonable price and are extremely efficient computers. The main HP computer that stood out to me is the Touch Smart 310z Series. I have found this computer online at the HP website for $679.99. This specific computer is worth spending the money because it is touch screen and students would greatly benefit from being able to interact with the computer. This computer system stood out to me because it is a desktop and I think children need a separate screen and keyboard to learn. With this touch screen design the children are able to learn hands on with the computer because they can pinch, rotate, arc, flick, press and drag things with their hands on the computer screen and are able to have more of an interactive way of learning rather than just using a mouse with the computer.
This computer has many components needed for a computer in the classroom. This computer has a wireless mouse and keyboard and has removable feet for wall mounting. The keyboard is sufficiently tactile, has additional easy-access multimedia keys and buttons and has a built in USB hub. The mouse is optical and the cord is long enough to use comfortably and you do not even have to use the cord, but it is an option and there is no mouse pad needed. It also has a slot loading DVD drive and a digital media card reader and has learning and reference software that could be beneficial to the students. It also has a built in web cam and microphone which would be of great use for students and has premium speakers for a crisp sound. The HP Touch Smart 310 has a 20" 1080p Full HD widescreen with 16:9. With such a great picture and large screen, the students will be more interested when they are learning with the computer. HP computers are also energy efficient and are mindful to the environment. HP computers have a great security system and come with preinstalled security software to protect against viruses, spam spyware, and other on-line threats. The 640GB 7200 rpm SATA 3Gb/s hard drive stores information, data and everything else you would want to save. The memory on HP’s is excellent and you can run multiple programs at a time.
The HP Deskjet 3000 Printer also goes well with any HP computers because it is the world’s top selling printer brand because it can print wirelessly, it powers up fast, prints instantly and shuts down right after printing so it is energy efficient. I found it online at Amazon.com for $56.06. This printer also has vivid color graphics and since it prints quickly it would be a good printer to have in the classroom because a printer that is speed sufficient so you can print paper in a timely manner. Any HP printer would go great in a classroom because they are the top selling printer brand because they are so reliable and work well. I would like a budget for the ink for the printer. A reasonable budget would be $100. It would be beneficial for my classroom to be able to print so the students can print.
The HP Touch Smart 310z series would best suite the classroom because it comes will all the components needed for a classroom computer, it runs fast, teachers are able to add applications and other things onto the computer and the key board, mouse and large screen are great for learning.
