Virtual Computer Build

Project Description

For this assignment, I used Newegg.com to build a PC virtually. My goal in designing this computer was for it to be a home office PC that could also be used for light gaming.

Lessons Learned

There are so many choices out there it was a bit overwhelming to make decisions! I learned that I have always used the term memory to mean both memory and storage. I also learned how to use hyperlinks in a word document. I also learned how to attach a document from OneDrive (as opposed to a file from my computer).
