The configuration addressing minimum acceptable performance should be used in assessing the suitability of a system that you already own. The configuration addressing minimum desirable performance should be considered, along with other factors related to intended usage, in making decisions leading to the upgrading of your system or the purchase of a new system. The subjective evaluation related to the assessment of a solution for minimum desirable performance is based in part on consideration of incremental cost factors, wherein additional advantage can be gained for little additional cost. As in all matters leading to such purchasing decisions, consideration should be given to future needs as both operating systems and application software are further developed and computation power and storage capacity requirements continue to increase. Trimble can offer little guidance in predicting future trends, other than to note the need to consider the recent past and to act accordingly.
