For this Assessment Task you are to create a report for NetMovies containing:

a) an overview of legislation that they should be aware of, as well as The Privacy Act 1988 requires us to have a privacy policy.

You also have a friend that can get "staff discount" from a local PC store, where the price is 20% cheaper than most major retailers. And, as a benefit, your friend gets commission on each product sold. He has suggested you sell the products at full price and split the difference with him. It seems win-win. (to calculate the prices of this equipment, just take 20% off the cheapest system you can find when you research what is available). It is important to note that your friend's company creates "new PC's" by reclaiming old PC's and putting the internal components into new casings.
