Chapter 5 Discussion and Future Research

5.4 Future research

Most studies nowadays focus on customization in the product industry. However, service industries are becoming more and more popular nowadays. Many companies in the product industry are converting to service industries and the boundary between these two industries is becoming obscured. It is, therefore, suggested that to research into the customization of service industry would be appropriate and valuable.

As was noted above, participants have higher purchase intention for notebooks than travel packages. To ensure that purchase intentions are the same across product types, another product should be chosen to represent search product in future research.

Finally, except for search and experience products, Darby and Karni (1973) added a new product type, namely, credence products. Future research should be extended to compare and contrast three product types.

第二部份 此部份衡量你對筆電的看法

請根據筆記型電腦外觀顏色回答下列問題

第三部份 請你仔細閱讀以下情境後填寫問卷

假設你打算購買一台新的筆記型電腦,而你常去的一家電腦用品專賣店最近正好推出了讓顧客設計自己 電腦的服務,你可以根據自己的需求選擇你要的筆記型電腦的 CPU,外觀的顏色,硬碟的容量以及記憶 體的大小等等。

以下是筆記型電腦的保養方式:

筆電的螢幕保養盡可能使用超細纖維的眼鏡布擦拭。如螢幕上有灰塵,先輕拍將灰塵拍掉再進行擦拭動 作,如此才能避免灰塵顆粒經拭布的擦拭磨擦,而對螢幕造成的刮傷。擦拭布如果髒了,盡可能換新;

如果擦拭布十分昂貴,清洗晾乾後重複使用。使用清潔液體清理時,先將適量清潔液體倒於擦拭布上,

不可直接將清潔液噴灑在螢幕上。另外要避免機器運轉中擦拭。如果你想延伸電池壽命的話,建議電量 低到 20%即可充電,80%停止,以延長電池的壽命,使用上不需要吝惜充電次數,只要不要電量太低才充 電,或是充飽卻長時間閒置的話,電池衰退的情況並不會很嚴重,上述的現象比喻為運動的人,如果一 次大量的運動,很有可能造成運動傷害或是需要較長的時間才能恢復體力,循序漸進的運動方式才能保 持體力並迅速恢復。如何照顧光碟機,使用內建光碟機的筆記型電腦時,要注意光碟機讀寫頭是否常因 到處攜帶使用,導致沾染灰塵;使用者若是常發生讀取不正常或燒錄不成功,可依照光碟機機種使用 DVD 或 CD 清潔片適時清理一下,清潔片售價依照種類與品牌不同從數百元到上千元都有。除了光碟機以外,

其他筆電的配備也都要定時保養清潔,才能延長筆電壽命。

以下是可以讓您選擇的部份

記憶體三選一 Æ CPU 三選一 Æ 硬碟三選一 Æ 外觀顏色三選一

記憶體三選一 Æ CPU 三選一 Æ 硬碟三選一 Æ 外觀顏色三選一 以下是三種大小記憶體適合用途說明:

1. 創見 DDRII667(1G):

記憶體大小大代表速度的快慢,記憶體越大,速度越快,記憶體通常是以奈秒(nanosecond,ns)或 百萬赫茲(megahertz,MHz)來表示,對於一般筆記型電腦使用者而言,1G 的記憶體大小就足夠使用,

作業系統 WindowsXP 以下都能正常運作,適合運作基本的文書資料,價格也最為便宜。

2. 創見 DDRII667(1.5G):

若筆記型電腦的作業系統是 Windows Vista,1.5G 記憶體是不錯的選擇,多了 512MB 的記憶體就可 以讓電腦運作更為順暢,一般基本文書資料等等的軟體跑起來速度也沒問題,提醒一點,DDR 與 DDRII 兩種記憶體不相容,所以若要加裝記憶體,兩者不可以共用價格比 1G 的記憶體貴 400 元。

3. 創見 DDRII667(2G):

DDRII667 是現在比較常用的規格,667 代表的是記憶體的頻率,若筆記型電腦的使用除運作一般文 書資料以外,還需要跑一些應用軟體,如繪圖軟體或是電動遊戲等等,2G 記憶體是不錯的選擇,多 了 1G 的記憶體,速度加快不少,可以應付更多吃記憶體的軟體,2G 價格比 1G 貴 600 元。

你可以選擇你最需要的記憶體大小

□ 創見 DDRII667(1G) □ 創見 DDRII667(1.5G) □ 創見 DDRII667(2G)

記憶體三選一 Æ CPU 三選一 Æ 硬碟三選一 Æ 外觀顏色三選一 以下為三種 CPU 的介紹:

1. T7100/1.8G/64bit/L2=2MB/FSB800Mhz:

Intel T7100 的 CPU 雖然沒有 T7250 和 T7300 的效能好,但也已經相當不錯,這樣的等級對於一般 玩遊戲等的功能已經足夠,不會有 lag 的情形出現,當然還要看顯示卡跟記憶體的規格。

2. T7250/2G/64bit/L2=2MB/FSB800Mhz:

Intel T7250 介於此三款 CPU 中間,效能比 T7100 好,但價格也稍貴,目前促銷價比 T7100 貴 800 元,跟 T7300 的架構差不多,比較有差的部份在於 L2 的快取只有 T7300 的一半。

3. T7300/2G/64bit/L2=4MB/FSB800Mhz:

Intel T7300 是三種規格最好,效能最棒的一款,但價格也最貴,目前公司促銷價比 T7100 貴 1500 元,CPU 快取是 4MB,相當快速,是三款當中最適合需要跑繪圖等軟體的使用者。

你可以選一個你喜歡的 CPU

□ Intel T7100 □ Intel T7250 □ Intel T7300

記憶體三選一 Æ CPU 三選一 Æ 硬碟三選一 Æ 外觀顏色三選一 以下是三種硬碟的介紹:

1. 200G SATA(4200rpm):

200G Serial ATA(SATA)硬碟,200G 的硬碟,算是非常大的容量,能夠存取足夠的資料,不必擔心 硬碟空間不夠,主軸轉速 4200rpm (每秒 4200 轉),雖然轉速最慢,作業系統在執行上的速度以及 傳送資料速度也沒有其他兩種快,但對於沒有要傳大量資料的使用者而言,速度在可接受範圍,低 轉速的硬碟散發熱量最低,也最不耗電。

2. 160G SATA(5400rpm):

160GB Serial ATA(SATA)硬碟,轉速 5400rpm(每秒 5400 轉),是目前市面上最常見的轉速規格,作 業系統在執行上的速度以及資料傳送讀取的速度都適中,耗電量和散熱量都筆 4200rpm 稍微多一 些,適合一般使用者但在意硬碟速度的人,硬碟容量 160G,雖沒有 200G 的硬碟空間大,但對於一 般儲存文件及影音資料都相當夠用。

3. 120G SATA(7200rpm):

120GB SATA 硬碟,120G 的容量雖然不能說是大容量,但也絕對不算小,可以存的資料也不少,

7200rpm(每秒 7200 轉)的高轉速絕對符合日常處理文書、或是家用需求,資料傳輸速度快,對於需 要非常快速的獨取檔案的使用者而言,7200rpm 的轉速絕對能滿足需求,速度是三種硬碟中最快,

效能也最高,但耗電量和散熱量也最高。

接下來你可以選擇你需要的硬碟種類:

□ 200G SATA(4200rpm) □ 160G SATA(5400rpm) □ 120GB SATA(7200rpm)

記憶體三選一 Æ CPU 三選一 Æ 硬碟三選一 Æ 外觀顏色三選一 以下為三種顏色介紹:

1. 黑色:

黑色是個時尚有個性的顏色,是一月出生的人的色彩,本月落在日照最少的寒冬,生命活動皆停止 或處於最深切的冬眠期,大地一片黑靜。帶給別人一種成熟穩重的感受,同時也是內斂、敏銳,及 高雅的象徵,選擇黑色,展現出可靠且獨立自主的個性,有泰山崩於前而不亂的冷靜思考能力,超 人般堅忍的耐力與毅力,但缺乏社交能力,多與人相處即可改善,但生活裡加點玫瑰紅色,可以減 少工作帶來的壓迫感並且更有包容力。

2. 白色:

白色代表純潔,雖然是個最原始最簡單的色彩,但卻代表著出眾的品味,白色是個靜態的色彩,合 平的顏色,選擇白色,展現出平易近人的鄰家氣息。白色是八月出生的人的顏色,此月分太陽光強 烈到由紅轉白,生命力發揮到極點。八月出生的人直覺強而敏銳,對生活特別有靈感,含蓄實在的 天性常能預知並配合環境的改變,調整計劃與需求,真誠可靠值得眾人信任,但有時太注重細微末 節,不做沒把握的事,反而畫地自限。

3. 粉紅色:

粉紅色代表著浪漫的情懷,及對流行的追求,選擇粉紅色可以顯示出自己與眾不同的品味,展現自 己獨一無二的風格,是一個華麗充滿自信的色彩。粉紅色是六月出生的人的顏色,具有過人的智慧,
