System Outputs
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using each output device for EACH of your subsystems?
Which output device would be better to use for this sub-system?
The best out-put device for a logo, is the one already in use, a laser printer.
Why?
Because not only of a laser printers benefits over an inkjets, but a graphic logo cannot be recreated by e.g. sound speakers.
Which output device would be better to use for this sub-system?
The VDU was more important in the database than the printer.
Why?
Because there was no need for the database to be printed.

Which output device would be better to use for this sub-system?
Both of the output devices were necessary in creating the ID cards. No other output devices were really needed.
Why?
Because I needed to see what I was doing and to print off my final product.
Which output device would be better to use for this sub-system?
The monitor and printer are both needed.
Why?
Because the monitor allows me to see what I am typing, and typing is faster than writing by hand, and printing takes less time than copying out a neat copy.
Are there any other output devices that can be used for each of four subsystems?
If I had the chance to remake anything, I think it would be effective to create a user manual on a disc with visual and vocal instructions so that it will become easier for people to understand, because different people find different methods of teaching most useful, so a disc will provide visual, vocal and text instructions thus apply to the majority of people. Also, a CD manual does not waste paper. Thus, it would require the output of a speaker.
All of these subsystems could be backed up on discs in case the original file is lost, although discs are both input and output.
