The Sorrento Hotel is a four-star hotel located in downtown Seattle. The hotel€™s operations vice president would like to replace the hotel€™s antiquated computer terminals at the registration desk with attractive state-of-the-art flat-panel displays. The new displays would take less space, would consume less power than the old computer terminals, and would provide additional security since they can only be viewed from a restrictive angle. The new computer displays would not require any new wiring. The hotel€™s chef believes the funds would be better spent on a new bulk freezer for the kitchen.
