| Hardware
is best described as a device that is physically connected to your
computer or something
that can be physically touched. A CD-ROM,
Monitor, Printer,
and video card
are all examples of computer hardware.
Without any hardware your computer
would not exist and software would have nothing to run on. The image to the right is of a webcam,
an example of an external hardware peripheral that allows users
to make basic videos, transmit videos of themselves over the
Internet, and take pictures. |
