Equipment Details
Dell
Each Dell laptop comes pre-installed with the following programs:
- Windows 10
- MS Office Suite (includes Outlook, PowerPoint, Word, Excel, Access, Skype, OneNote, OneDrive)
- Trend Anti-Virus
- Adobe Creative Cloud and Acrobat DC (Patrons must have their own Adobe account for these programs to work)
- Google Chrome
- Mozilla Firefox
- VLC media Player
A charging cable will also come with the laptop. Additionally, there are certain programs that can be downloaded should you need them, like Zoom.
Chromebook
Chromebooks are for those who need basic access to the internet and cannot have special programs/software downloaded onto them. Selecting a Chromebook over a Dell laptop will only give patrons the ability to user "browser-friendly" versions of programs such as Microsoft Suite (Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, etc) and Google (Drive, Docs, Slides, Sheets, etc). Canvas would also be accessible.
