Analyzing hardware requirements involves carefully comparing the needs assessment information (i.e. what the system must do and how it will be used) to the available budget and the features of different hardware and software options. This allows for the selection of the most appropriate hardware to support the system's functionality while staying within budget constraints. Thin clients, personal digital assistants, and laser printers may all be part of a hardware solution, but they are not necessarily the most appropriate choices without considering the needs assessment and budget.
