11 November 2009

Today we have a holiday, albeit one in the middle of the week. Therefore, it was my mission today to work on my Criterion I and my site.

I first had to complete all of the components of Criterion I:

1. Detailed Schedule.

For this, I pasted the schedule I had previously turned, with some slight revision.

2. Visual Evidence of Design.

I also included within my full Critereon I the storyboard and link tree I finished working on last Friday.

3. Software

Using the information I found under applications-> about, I was able to find the details I needed about all the software on my computer. I combined this with the information I got last Wednesday, about the programs on the Mac. As I'm working with two computers with two different operating systems, this part seemed a little long to me. Here is the table I created:

Description	Name	Version	Company
Operating Systems	Vista	Version 2007	Windows
	Mac OS
Word Processer	Word	Version 2007	Microsoft
Image Editor	The Gimp	Version 2.4.5	GPL
	Photoshop	Version CS4	Adobe
Web Design Program	Dreamweaver	Version CS4	Adobe
Equation Plotter	WinPlot	Versiom1.25.0.1	GPL

I also learned that several of my programs were under general public license (GPL), basically meaning it was possible to download the programs without having to pay the creator.

4. Hardware

This I also found, on both my laptop and the macbook, on the "about this mac" section. Here is that table:

Hardware Required

PC
Central Processing Unit	Intel Core 2, 1.73 GHz
RAM	1.00 GB
Hard Drive	Fujitsu ATA Device
Macbook
Central Processing Unity	Intel Core 2, 2.26GHz
RAM	2GB (two 1GB SO-DIMMs) of 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM
Hard Drive	250GB 5400-rpm Serial ATA hard disk drive

5. The information I have been collecting (and will continue to collect) has come from these sources:
