Below are the recommendations for PCs, Apple devices, printers and scanners, speakers, monitors, and other peripherals.

PCs
Computer Systems are separated into three categories:
Basic computer (B)- These are for the systems that are used that do not process much such as Accutrack Systems, Kiosk Systems, or standing models that run certain functions. These are also used for computers that do not need much processing power such as seldom used computers.
Standard computer (S) - These are the computers that most people would order. This is for your standard Office and Classroom use. Almost all PCs will fall into the "Standard" configuration.
Power computer (P) - These are for more high-end and media / processing computers. There are only a handful of cases that really need these systems. Example: Adobe and AutoCad user.
