Hello everyone, I'm Harrison and I will be writing about buying a computer with a printer on a budget. The scenario that I will be creating is that we need to buy a computer and a printer with a budget of $650, this computer will be used for personal use and for school.
The computer I picked out is a HP Pavilion Touchsmart 17z. I Chose this one for several reasons.
- It has a 4GB memory so its not the fastest but it will serve the purposes we need.
- It has 500GB of memory which is a half of a terabyte and that will be plenty of memory
- It has a 17.3in screen which will be great to watch movies or look at pictures.
- It is also on about 6lbs so it will be ultra portable.
- It comes with three USB ports, a HDMI port and a audio-jack.
- It's graphics are AMD Radeon HD Graphics.
- It comes with an Ethernet cable.
- It does not have a DVD slot but for what we are going to use it for it will not need one.
- It has a web cam and a jack for a microphone.

This computer will be great for school because it would be able to run basic word processing, power point and spreadsheets. It also has wireless Internet so I would be able to use the Internet in most places. The big screen would be good for entertainment like watching movies. Because of it's light weight it would be very portable.The printer I chose was the HP Laserjet Pro P1606dn Printer. This printer is $209.99 on the HP website. I chose this printer because of all of the functions below.
- It has 26 pages per minute.
- It has double sided printing.
- It has Airprinting which is compatible with all mobile Apple devices.

Below is a complete budget of the computer and the printer. As you can see we, have a net loss so there are may things we could do to do this, we could wait a little longer and save up more, we could borrow money, we could even look around more to see if we can find one for a better price but that is up for you to decide.
