Hello, I want to know what the most appropriate way to write this sentence "The computer is useful." in Mandarin, traditional chinese. The translators give me 2 different results:

Google translator: 计算机是有用的。

Bing translator: 電腦是有用的。

I would appreciate any help.

電腦有用。

Your first result is in simplified Chinese anyway. Both use the 是...的 construction, which is unnecessary. 計算機 (计算机 in simplified) is a Mainland term, and since you're asking for traditional characters, I figured 電腦 would be better.
