computerSystem-Dedicated

Enumeration indicating whether the ComputerSystem is
a special-purpose System (ie, dedicated to a particular use),
versus being 'general purpose'. For example, one could
specify that the System is dedicated to 'Print'
(value=11) or acts as a 'Hub' (value=8). \n
A clarification is needed with respect to the value 17
('Mobile User Device'). An example of a dedicated user
device is a mobile phone or a barcode scanner in a store
that communicates via radio frequency. These systems are
quite limited in functionality and programmability, and are
not considered 'general purpose' computing platforms.
Alternately, an example of a mobile system that is 'general
purpose' (i.e., is NOT dedicated) is a hand-held computer.
Although limited in its programmability, new software can
be downloaded and its functionality expanded by the user.
