Topic #4: Compatibility
Compatibility is only a big issue if you have older computers in your office. Most new computers are equipped to deal with current software demands. The only thing you have to make sure of with newer computers is that the software is compatible with the operating system you're running. If you're running Windows 95/98/NT you must buy software for that platform. If you're running a Mac OS, you must buy software for that, and so on.
If you want to install software on older computers there are three things you must keep in mind: processor speed, memory and disk space available. Almost all software will have a recommended section on the box, web site or brochure. There it will tell you what the minimum requirements to run the software are. Knowing what processor speed, how much memory and disk space you have to work with make everything a whole lot easier and you won't end up with something you can't use.
