| 249427 | 2004-07-03 06:35:00 | Hey I reading a post and I fond this text "There are plenty of people out there using their computers that have absolutely no idea even what Windows version they're running, let alone what CPU/motherboard/video card might be sitting inside their "CPU" (as most of them seem to call it)." - Mike and I was thinking what is the real name of the so called "CPU, HHD ,Big Box thingy" I have always called it an HHD but we all know a HHD is a small thing inside the case so whats the case and every thing named? *I dont think its computer because that would be the screen, keyboard, mouse and so on* |

The screen doesn't compute things, neither does a keyboard or mouse. A screen is an output device, and keyboard and mouse are input devices. Theoretically you can run your computer without them. You can't run much without the "box" :| Mike. |

| 249436 | 2004-07-03 12:00:00 | well i suppose it all depends on how you define computing and on what level. | agent_24 (4330) | ||
