Slide 1- Title Slide 2- Introduction Slide 3-5- Wikipedia Article  Slide 6-8- Lower Cost Article Slide 9-11-  Slide 12- Conclusion Slide 13- Websites Contents

Working with/on hardware could include printers or scanners. Another skill needed would be using software. Software would include using Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, as well as games that come in software form. Skills Article #2
