Introduction
• Software that for years was only
available for mainframe computers is
now available for microcomputers.
Specialized application software
makes it possible to perform
advanced tasks at home.
• Home users can now create Webs
sites, work with graphic images, and
create music or art.
• Robots now provide security and
assistance in homes.
• Competent end users need to be
aware of specialized applications
such as: graphics programs, audio
and video editing software,
multimedia, Web authoring, and
artificial intelligence.
