This question has many different intakes and types of answers. Ill answer the most common references. Hardware that allows computers to talk to the simplist level is a ethernet card. With an ethernet card on both computers using a crossover cable you can connect them with each other and allow them to talk. Another more popular piece of hardware that connects computers and allow them to talk is the infamous router. A router is a workstation that connects all computers together and they can share files, media, and an internet connection. If you talking on the wireless level bluetooth and adhock connections allow computers to talk.
Hope this helps!

Besides NIC (Network Interface Card), other devices that can be used to communicate with other computers or other users are: internet, IM (instant messaging), VoIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol), Virtual PBX (Private Branch eXchange).

What is a small inexpensive device that joins multiple computers together?
There are loads! USB cables with double A type connectors can, WiFi can be used either directly or indirectly via a router/hub. Serial cables can be used to do a direct transfer although it has a slow baud rate. You can use 2 network cables vis a hub, switch or router - you can also use a single network cable if its a crossover cable. You can use bluetooth, Infa-red or any other number of wireless mesiums. I've used an old parallel printer cable before! Either way - you need 3 common elements to do a transfer: - A physical connection - the hardware used to make the transfer - A logical connection - a common language (or protocol) for the physical hardware to 'talk' with and - An application connection. usually an operating system, FTP program, web browser, firmware - something to build and deconstruct the data sent over the connection
You are irritated and you are telling the last time explanation of the computer hardware?
So why are you irritated? Was it something about your childhood? would you like to talk about it?Just lie down on the couch and tell us all about your mother.FLASH!This just in!Nobody cares that you're irritated.
What is a an STP networking cable and what is its use?
STP stands for shielded twisted pair. when you look inside a networking cable there are six different wires these wires are "paired" and these pairs are twisted. The purpose of this is to prevent something known as cross talk. Cross talk is where the signalalong the wire experiences an electromagnetic interference induced by Eddie currents By twisting the two wires this phenomena, is cancelled out and the data can then be transmitted without interference There are a few types of networking cable commonly in use UTP (un-shielded) STP and coaxial UTP is generally a lot cheaper than STP so is used more commonly however STP cables also have a "shielding" which surrounds each twisted pair as well as a main shield "shielding" all three pairs. This provides more protection from "external" sources of interference such as power sources or strong signals. These cables are used to link computers to other computers, or computers to other parts of the network such as "switches" or "routers". The cables can be wired in different ways depending on the use. Connecting computers to each other allows you to create an "intranet" where users can easily share and exchange data, share internet links, or share software/hardware also connected to that network - Jason MEng
What connects two or more computers so they can talk to each other?
A cross-over cable.

What does INTEL involved into?
please rephrase you question.... if you mean the computer company intel and what they do is they create personal computers and tables ... hardware......there was talk that they would stop making computers and focuse on software only
Why do you have network computers?
The best thing about a computer is the way you can use it to communicate, when you put business computers on a network workers can communicate with peers, clients, the internet and basically anything.
Allow computer to talk with each other?
Yes this things happen by just doing connections between 2 computers and also by internet community.
What connects computers and allows them to talk each other?
A network. In a home or Business, you have a LAN (Local Area Network). These connect to the WAN (Wide Area Network), more commonly known as the World Wide Web.
What is the Importance of knowing the different classifications of computers?
It enables you to understand how computers have evolved and to talk cogently on the subject.
What is the role of Ethernet switches in a network?
The role of ethernet switches in a network is to allow computers and other devices to talk to each other. This also allows many users to access a shared device such as a printer.
Can a computer talk back n forth?
Yes computers can talk to each other, just like we can talk to each other, for computers it could just be from checking if something is working - to recieving a signal from wireless internet.
