Although laptops are very popular because of their flexibility, many people still swear by a fixed PC. That is not surprising:with a PC you can adopt a better working posture and a PC often offers more options for connecting other devices. We'll discuss some of those other devices you could connect to expand the capabilities of your PC.
In this time of working from home, meeting via Teams or Zoom is commonplace. It is customary that all participants can also see and hear each other. But where many modern laptops have a built-in webcam, many monitors for PCs do not. In order to still be able to come into the picture, an external webcam must be connected to the PC and preferably clamped on top of the monitor. To make this possible, the Aukey Full HD webcam is a good option, for example. This shows you well and in high image quality, plus it has two built-in microphones so that you can also be heard clearly by the others in the meeting.
Not all fixed computers have a network card that can also receive a wireless internet signal. It is usual for a PC to be connected to the router with a coaxial cable. You may have to drill through walls and lay a meter long cable to ensure that your computer has internet. However, if you want to move your computer for whatever reason, you won't just have internet on your computer at the new location. A WiFi dongle can solve this problem. That is a kind of USB stick that ensures that your PC can still use the WiFi. This can also be a cheaper alternative to installing a network card with WiFi capabilities.
Would you like to be able to create designs on your PC? This is often not very convenient with only a mouse and a keyboard. Wouldn't it be nice if you could just draw 'real' on your computer? You can use a drawing tablet for that. You could describe it as a kind of mouse pad that you can draw on with a pen. It replaces your mouse and therefore also offers the possibilities that a mouse offers, such as clicking things on the computer.
The only thing your computer misses is that you can't take it with you on a walk. But you already know that the moment you make the choice for a PC instead of a laptop.
