simple definition of "SPECIFICATIONS" can be "A detailed description of design criteria for a piece of work." In a simple language, these specifications are actually the ones which makes up the respective qualifications that make up a computer. they can be used to determine the price of the computer.
On looking at the computer specification we consider the following primary and most important things; Hard Disk Capacity, Processing speed and RAM.
