Consider this scenario: A family$-$run bike shop is growing, but all of its data is currently on paper. This data includes expenses, sales, wages for workers, and so on$.$ The shop owners want software to better organize and use this information, as well as information on how software could help as the store expands to new locations.

Research alternatives for operating systems, software, and hardware and make a recommendation to the shop owners that addresses the following:

Compare the features of operating systems.

Be sure to consider both Mac and Windows operating systems, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of each for the bike shop.

Recommend productivity software for a specific business context.

The shop will need basic word processing and spreadsheet software. Given its growth, it will also need productivity software to keep track of expenses. In addition, the store will need to design posters, signs, and labels to highlight merchandise, promotions, sales, and special events.
