.........造福電腦玩家、生產性消費者和系統組裝者。

-----------------------------------------

不好意思，
這個問題與先前的system builder（再三衡量過後，目前認為"系統組裝者"較為妥當）問的是同一個句子，
prosumer查到的中譯是"生產性消費者"或"產銷合一者"。

但是，
根據wiki百科的解釋：
Prosumer is a portmanteau formed by contracting either the word professional or producer with the word consumer. The term has taken on multiple conflicting meanings: the business sector sees the prosumer (professional–consumer) as a market segment, whereas economists see the prosumer (producer–consumer) as having greater independence from the mainstream economy. It can also be thought of as converse to the consumer with a passive role, denoting an active role as the individual gets more involved in the process. More recently, in the mental health field, the word "'prosumer'" has come to mean "consumer/provider," also known as a "peer provider," such as a peer support specialist or other mental health consumer who also provides peer support mental health services (background on peer-run mental health services). The word "Prosumerise" has been coined by Widality to represent the merging of the IT and mobility requirements of the prosumer, consumer, and enterprise.

"prosumer"一詞似乎也可理解為"專業消費者"。

那麼如果原文的主要性質是電腦產品介紹，
"專業消費者"是否最為適合呢？

謝謝，
感激不盡！
