Simpler, Productive Software to Boom

Article Abstract:

Simple user-friendly software is the trend and retailers will have to follow this trend. The idea is to make computers people literate, not the other way around. People are buying home computers which have quality software that vendors should stand behind. Home uses of a computer are word processing, home finance and self improvement. This software should be available for all quality systems, not only the latest model.
