Girl: Hi.
Man: Hello. Can I help you?
Girl: Yes. I’d like to buy a laptop, but I’m not sure which one.
Man: OK. Do you want it for schoolwork, or playing games, or streaming videos? Or maybe for talking to friends and family?
Girl: Well, I do schoolwork on my desktop computer, and I watch movies on that, too.
Man: So … games or messages, then?
Girl: I talk to people on my smartphone. I never use my laptop.
Man: Right, so you need something which is very fast. The X19 is cheap, but it isn’t fast enough. How much can you pay?
Girl: About $700.
Man: Um. Then the X22 is too expensive for you. You need the X20 or the X21. The X20 has a better screen for games, and it’s
under $700.
Girl: OK. What’s the battery life like? My laptop now only lasts about five or six hours.
Man: New laptops are much better. You get at least 12 hours of game-playing with the X20. The most expensive laptop lasts 14
hours.
Girl: What else should I think about?
Man: Well, don’t worry about storage or weight. None of them are heavy. And the keyboard isn’t important for game-playing. But
you need good speakers, because sound is very important in games now.
Girl: OK. I’ll take it.
Man: Cool. You’ll be very happy with the performance.
Girl: I hope so.
