Welcome To The Digital Age
It is getting better and better that is to find ways
of getting images into your computer. This would be useful if
you are developing a web page, or needing an image to send a
long with your email, or even if you are thinking of putting
together a news letter and want to include an image or two. Digital
technology is here to stay, but the best part of this is that
it is now affordable by the consumer. The price dropped were
first noticeable on flat bed scanners. A few years ago you would
have expected to pay several thousands of dollars for a scanner
with 300 dpi (dots per inch) resolution. For a 600 x 1200 dpi
flat bed scanner in Canada today you can buy one for under one
hundred dollars.
My favorite way of introducing an image or better
yet motion is with the aid of a still camera or DV camcorder.
Once again quality has gone up with each passing year while at
the same time prices fall. I am seeing 5 meg pixel still cameras
selling at local department stores rather than a speciality camera
store. These cameras are still price high for most consumers
but their prices have help make yesterdays 1.2 meg pixel cameras
affordable for many consumers who have waited for prices to be
more affordable. We are seeing DV Camcorders competing for the
still image market too by offering both motion and still capability
in one camera and there affordable too.
Technology is a fast pace market and it has brought
a very competitive industry that benefits the consumer for a
change. I see faster computers cpu selling on store shelves almost
every month now, and with drastic price reductions. you know
longer have to wait for that perfect computer sale. It has never
been a better time to buy a faster new computer. It is a consumers
market out there, affordable for just about everything and anything
that sparks your imagination We know that our future we will
see more digital devices used by the novice consumer and fire
wire and USB are todays standards. We are seeing common hard
dives for the PC and Macintosh platforms. We are seeing Macintosh
and Window based computers becoming more similar when in use
with hardware and some software. The gap between the two is no
longer alien to most of us anymore.
Producing companies can afford to produce one product
for both Window and Macintosh platform at a reduced cost to the
consumer. Digital technology is highly advanced for most consumers
and their sophistication offers something for everyone seeking
to get the most from their computers. No more are computers being
used for word processing, not today. Know way with their power
capability we are using computers for anything and everything
that the creative mind can dream up. Digital video boards offer
out standing graphics and motion. The internet offers better
graphics and has in it's self opened our minds to higher levels
of thinking and pushed us into new and exciting avenues. This
it a great time to own a computer, and with it the sky is the
limit. The digital time to buy affords us the opportunity of
getting better quality and offering an easier ways of introducing
images into our computer.
