You will need access to a computer for your studies. Access
to the Internet is strongly recommended. A machine of the MS Windows
type is required. Hardware and software specifications change, so
if you are purchasing a computer for your studies, you should purchase
the best quality and highest capacity (RAM, hard drive, monitor)
that you can afford.
