A computer at home

Do you want to:

  • learn and develop your knowledge?
  • communicate?
  • inquire about products or services?
  • work at home?
  • manage your bank accounts and investments?
  • store, exchange, and handle your photos and videos?
  • listen to, store, and exchange music?
  • manage your spare-time activities?
  • look at, store, and exchange movies?
  • play games?
  • keep aware of the latest news?
  • do shopping?

Then you're certainly looking for a home computer, which will match your desires but also your actual needs.

What you must do

Almost all these uses need a good connection to Internet. Obviously, you also need a computer, and on this computer you need some set of applications. Finally, you must learn how to use the computer and the applications.

The lot of knowledge and practice necessary for all that is not known by most people. One cannot buy a computer in the same way as a dishwasher, and its user manual, if it was available, would need several thousand pages.

The first serious problem is to buy the computer. Its price can be large (from 1000 € to twice or thrice this amount). The shop assistants will not assist you in buying what you need, but only it buying what they want you to buy.

Then, how to make a good use of the innumerable capabilities of this computer? How to learn how to use all these applications? What to do in case of problems? Too many people are forced to ask for help to friends, neighbours, or siblings, not really more competent than themselves.
