Conversation 1
A: They are state-of-the-art computers. Would you like to see how it works?
A：这些是最尖端的电脑。您想看看它是如何操作的吗？
B: Yes, please.
B：好的，麻烦你了。
A: OK. Let me just have it all set up in a minute. They are great for business application. Look at how fast it runs. It's also IBM compatible. And it's priced much less than buying the original.
A：好，让我马上把它安装好。它们在商业上用途很广。它运转很快，也可以与IBM兼容，而且比原来的极其便宜多了。
B: I'm planning to set up a desktop publishing system and I need a computer with a hard disk and runs on a 32-bit.
B：我正在计划安装一个桌面出版系统。需要一台有硬盘并有32位的电脑。
A: Oh, in that case, this model will do just fine. Do you have the software for it already?
A：噢，那样的话，这要正好可以。你已经有了它的软件吗？
B: Yes, I have a Ventura. Isn't it for IBM computers?
B：是的，我有Ventura。它不是用在IBM电脑里的吗？
A: Yes, they are. You might also want to get the other paraphernalia that toes with it, like the laser printer.
A：是的，你也必须有与它相配合的其他设备，譬如，激光打印机。
B: How is the resolution of your laser printer?
B：你们的激光打印机清晰度怎样？
A: It's 300 DPI. That's about the best you can get with this model. There are others with higher resolution, but they'll cost more. Are you doing this for business or as hobby?
A：300点每英寸。那是您所能得到的最好的了。但也有其他具有较高清晰度的激光打印机。不过比较贵。您这样做是为了做生意还是为了兴趣？
B: Well, I'm starting it out as a hobby to tell you the truth. But later on I plan to expand it into a business.
B：坦白告诉你，我开始做只是当成一种爱好。但后来计划把它扩展成一种事业。
A: Well, this will definitely do. You can expand the features later on as you become familiar with the system and when you start doing your business.
A：嗯，这的确很合适，当您熟悉这个系统而且开始做生意以后，还可以接着扩充它的特性。
B: If I buy the computer now and buy a matrix printer, can I trade it for a laser printer later on and pay you the difference plus the cost of the depreciation?
B：如果我现在买电脑和点阵打印机，以后可不可以用它来换一台激光打印机？我会付足差额，再加上折旧的价钱。
A: Well, we don't do it here, but we can tell you where you can do that.
A：噢，我们这里不能这样做。但我可以告诉您在那里有这样的业务。
