==Purposes== [[File:Laboratorio de computo.ogv|thumb|Computer lab]] While computer labs are generally multipurpose, some labs may contain computers with hardware or software optimized for certain tasks or processes, depending on the needs of the institution operating the lab. These specialized purposes may include video editing, stock trading, 3-D [[computer-aided design]], programming, and [[geographic information systems|GIS]].<ref name="myth" /> Increasingly, these have become the main purposes for the existence of traditional desktop-style computer labs, due to rising ownership of inexpensive personal computers making use of the lab only necessary when the expensive, specialized software and more powerful computers needed to run it are required.<ref name="myth" />
