Recommendation: Type your recommendation here Students need a reliable desktop for their clubs that’ll last for years for keeping records, product newsletters, editing slides for a group project. But choosing the right laptop can be more challenging than is sems. You need to factor in costs reliability and the right fit to give you everything you need. We have 2 very good CPU’s but the one I would recommend is the Inspiron 24 All-in-One. While the Inspiron 24 All-in-One is worth around $450-499 just reaching our budget, I would say overall it is the better computer that will suit our purpose for the club better. This desktop really is an “All in one” It had everything you could need. You get more power and more storage for less money, they’re infinitely customizable and upgradeable, and they’re often simply easier to use. You’ll have plenty of storage space for files, media and more, and 12GB of RAM is fine for smooth multitasking across programs. This computer runs Microsoft office 2019 but can also run office 365 also. Higher price sometimes means better quality and its true for the pc with its 300 GB hard drive capacity and AMD Ryzen 7330U 4-core/8-thread Processor with Radeon™ Graphics. This PC also comes with a monitor and printer, so you won’t have to spend more money looking for some. In conclusion, this is the best computer I would recommend for the club.
