No. Physical parts of a computer are called Hardware.They are hard and you can touch them.
There are a lot of things that are called software though, like word processing, bugeting, presentation, photo editing, 3D rendering, and animation programes. Even Video Games are software.
Software is instructions for the computer, held as a binary code within the machine. You cannot see it or touch it, you only see it's effects. This is why it is called 'soft'. It forms an important part of a computer because it cannot function without it and is 'wares' in as much as you can buy, sell and trade it, as if it were physical.
What else can I help you with?
The physical devices that a computer is made of are referred to as?
The physical parts of a computer are all called hardware. That is opposed to ideas and invisible code called software that are encoded on a physical medium. Even a diskette or CD is technically considered hardware, while the data which is stored on it is software.
Is McAfee virus protection a computer hardware?
No, McAfee virus protection is not hardware. Instead, it is a software program. Hardware is the physical parts of a computer, but software is computer code. So an antivirus program is software, not hardware.
The physical parts of the computer that store and process data are called?
Hardware
What are the physical components of a computer called?
The physical components of a computer are called "hardware". In relation, the non-physical parts of a computer are called "software". It can be thought of in a way that "hard" means it is tangible (you can touch it), while "soft" means it is intangible (you cannot touch it). This can be a good way for some people to remember the difference and meanings to both terms.
What is the meanig of software?
any thing that is not physically there. the internet browser you are using is software, so is your favorite PC game. but your hard drive, and all the motherboard and things, inside your PC tower is hardware.

What are the parts of the computer system that you can touch called?
Hardware. Hardware(Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, etc.) are the physical components, software are the applications that run on the computer (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.)
The physical parts of the computer that store and process data are called?
Hardware
Is there a software that can be substituted for a ram?
RAM is a physical component of a computer it is entirely unrelated to 'software'. Software can not be substituted for RAM. Note: 'Hardware' describes all components that are physical, in other words 'computer parts'. 'Software' describes the programs and applications that run on computers. None can be substituted for the other.
What is the difference between software and hardware in terms of computer technology?
Software refers to the programs and applications that run on a computer, while hardware refers to the physical components of a computer, such as the processor, memory, and storage devices. In simple terms, software is what you can't touch but interact with on a computer, while hardware is the physical parts that you can touch and see.
