Conversation 1
A: They are state-of-the-art computers. Would you like to see how it works?
B: Yes, please.
A: OK. Let me just have it all set up in a minute. They are great for business application. Look at how fast it runs. It's also IBM compatible. And it's priced much less than buying the original.
B: I'm planning to set up a desktop publishing system and I need a computer with a hard disk and runs on a 32-bit.
A: Oh, in that case, this model will do just fine. Do you have the software for it already?
B: Yes, I have a Ventura. Isn't it for IBM computers?
A: Yes, they are. You might also want to get the other paraphernalia that toes with it, like the laser printer.
B: How is the resolution of your laser printer?
A: It's 300 DPI. That's about the best you can get with this model. There are others with higher resolution, but they'll cost more. Are you doing this for business or as hobby?
B: Well, I'm starting it out as a hobby to tell you the truth. But later on I plan to expand it into a business.
A: Well, this will definitely do. You can expand the features later on as you become familiar with the system and when you start doing your business.
B: If I buy the computer now and buy a matrix printer, can I trade it for a laser printer later on and pay you the difference plus the cost of the depreciation?
A: Well, we don't do it here, but we can tell you where you can do that.
