Technology tip of the week: Should I get a PC, laptop or tablet?

Think about what you will be using the product for?

If it is just for grocery shopping and browsing daily news sites, then a PC or laptop will be just fine. However, if you like to take trips out and take photographs, or like to keep your mind active by playing games, then a tablet would probably be better for you. Games and ‘apps’ as they are called (applications) will be updated and the photos are saved on your device ready to email if you wish to do so. A lot of people like using a tablet because it’s effortless, intuitive and easy to carry around, so it’s good for reading in bed or using it on the sofa! However if you want to get work done and to create documents and emails, a laptop or PC desktop is often better!
