Unit 2 Reading Notes

Computer Hardware: The page on Wikipedia that discusses the computer that is a nice entry for people that are unfimilar with how a computer looks like inside and how the different components of a computer works together for the overall funtioning of the computer.

Moore’s Law is a way to explain the pace that computers will improve over the years. This law can be a guide to go by as to determine how often computer technology needs to be replaced.

Computer History Museum: The computer history museum offers and understanding of how computers affected society. Specific exhibits describe things like selling the computer revolution, the timeline of the history of the Internet, the timeline of the computer revolution, and many other issues dealing with computers. Viewing the pages on the different exhibits in the computer history museum shows just how important the understand of the history of the computer is to the general.

Muddiest Point: When it comes to the discussion of the bus, the forum that parts of the computer use to communicate with each other, is this bus built in the structure of the motherboard or it the cables, like SATA, that the bus is referring to.
