What is the difference between instruction pipelining and arithmetic pipelining?
Arithmetic pipelines differ from instruction pipelines in some important ways. They are generally synchronous. This means that each stage executes in a fixed number of clock cycles. In a synchronous pipeline, moreover, no buffering between stages is provided. Each stage must be ready to accept the data passed from a previous stage when that data is produced.
Another important difference is that an arithmetic pipeline may be nonlinear. The "stages" in this type of pipeline are associated with key processing components such as adders, shifters, etc. Instead of a steady progression through a fixed sequence of stages, a task in a nonlinear pipeline may use more than one stage at a time, or may return to the same stage at several points in processing.
Which is a better make of mouse Logitech or Kensington?
logitech boyyyyy!
Noooo! It has to be Kensington coz i has one :P logitech is best
The Guy above is dogey its totally logitech:)
true
What is 8255 interfacing with 8085 microprocessor?
It means an 8 bit parallel I/O interface, as opposed to 8251 which is a serial I/O.
A keyboard and a mouse are... the mouse is the thing that has a chord attached to the top and with a scroll thing. The keyboard is the thing you use to type with like make stories on word and type questions on wikipedia answers.
How much did the inventor of the computer mouse initially make from his invention?
The mouse was invented maybe 30 years ago at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Centre. (PARC) But there is no information on who exactly invented it, or if that person made any money.
Not true, Douglas C. Engelbart invented the mouse. He was at Xerox PARC at the time. According to Peter Forbes, "Engelbart, who had patented the mouse in 1967 in Stanford's name, never made any money from it; Stanford Research Institute licensed the idea to Apple for a nominal sum."
Steve Jobs saw the mouse in action as part of their research on user interfaces and "borrowed" the mouse and the GUI interface concept for the Apple PC.
Since Xerox was not successful in the PC business, I guess Jobs deserves a lot of the credit for making the mouse and the GUI interface the de facto user interface for the whole personal computer industry.
Is Minnie Mouse and Micky mouse married?
Not on screen According to Walt Disney, Mickey and Minnie Mouse have never been married on screen. But, in 1933, during an interview with Film Pictorial, Walt said, "In private life, Mickey is married to Minnie... What it really amounts to is that Minnie is, for screen purposes, his leading lady." Two years later in 1935, he told Louise Morgan in the News Chronicle "There's no marriage in the land of make-believe. Mickey and Minnie must live happily ever after." The discussion of Mickey and Minnie's wedding has been fueled by the 1932 film Mickey's Nightmare in which Mickey falls asleep in the armchair instead of meeting Minnie at the local dance. Mickey dreams of being married to Minnie and is surrounded by numerous little Mickey mice. Then in 1935, a cover for for the sheet music "The Wedding Of Mister Mickey Mouse"shows a picture of a beaming Mickey, dressing in a tux, leading Minnie, dressed in a veil, from the church to the happy cheering of Horace Horsecollar and Clarabelle Cow. This music was a Novelty Fox-trot with music by Franz Vienna and words by Edward Pola with special permission by Walt Disney. " ~ Walt Disney
What are the advantages and disadvantages between an optical mouse and a ball mouse?
The laser of the optical mouse may bounce off certain colors and shapes on a mouse pad. * There are no disadvantages to a optical mouse. The optical mouse just works better and smoother than the ball mouse, and you never have to worry about the ball getting dirty or hanging. I would suggest getting an optical mouse and throwing the ball mouse away. For this you definitly need the opinion of someone who has to sufffer the ball mouse at least once a week. ie: School pupils. I have two IT lessons a fortnight, and at our school you have a choice between overly chunky optical mice or cheap, way too light ball mice. I end up tolerating the ball mice as I am very picky about my mice. I, personally like mice with a bit of weight on them, but the thick plastic outer of the school's optical mice is ridiculous. Generally, schools don't provide pupils with mousemats on the theory that they will be nicked/tooexpensive, so the only way to get the ball mice to operate in a friendly manner is to clean it before use, or use your science book as a substitute mousemat. The moral of this long-winded story is:
When was the computer mice invented?
It did not just show up out of the blue. It was actually invented in and around the year 1964, and patented by a man named Doug Engelbart. Bill English is given credit as a joint inventor.
Doug Engelbart was a man way ahead of his time. His invention of the mouse was created in his research lab which he opened in 1963. Although he invented the first mouse 1n 1964, it was not adapted for general use until the 1980s, when Apple Computers was the first company to put them with their computers.
Dr. Douglas Engelbart also brought us some other essential computer-related things. The related questions tie them in
Where was the first computer mouse was made?
Well the first mouse was invented by Tom Cranston, Fred Longstaff and Kenyon Taylor, but the design was not patented.
Douglas Engelbart of the Stanford Research Institute invented the wheel-based mouse in 1963. The first ball-based mouse was invented by Bill English at Xerox PARC in 1972.

Douglas Engelbart was a computer visionary of the 1960's What did he invent that you find handy?
Douglas C. Engelbart is credited with helping to transform the computer into an interactive visual medium. He is considered the father of the computer mouse, and played a key role in inventing or refining other components of personal computers and the Web, such as: word processing, bitmapped computer displays and navigating online using links.
What are advantages of using infrared mouse?
The mouse uses infrared light to pick up signals of movement from the mouse and transfer them to movement on the screen. It is much more accurate and can be faster than the response on a standard ball mouse. If you pick up the mouse and it has a red light shining from the bottom it is an infrared mouse.
How can you open a Creative Fatal1ty 1010 mouse?
Lift up the white pads on the bottom. Screws are underneath.
How old is a mouse that is about two inches long?
This really depends on the species, some are born bigger than others will ever become.
Generally the growth is a better indicator, do they have fur yet (first), have the opened their eyes yet? (about 12-13 days), are they walking around yet and do they give you a firm nibble during feeding time (14-15 days), have their ears opened up yet?
Once they grow fur, you can check out a list of your local mice species and try to find the right one, and then you can find more detailed information.
I also based this answer on what I found online and what I'm experiencing with my own found litter.
I would say though, if it doesn't have fur yet, don't count on it being old enough to survive, odds are slim.
If the eyes haven't opened yet, find a way to feed it kitten or puppy milk and it has a fighting chance.
If the eyes are open and it can eat solid foods (watch stool for warning signs), I would assume it's safe to get your hopes up.
If they passed all these stages, chances are it's an adult, as mice grow up very quickly.
What is the maximum number of logical drives on a basic disk?
As per TESTOUT for A+ exam 320-602 the max number of logical drives that can be created in a basic disk's extended partition is 26.
Well, Testout is wrong. That may have been correct in the dark days of FAT and DOS, but here in the 21st century, with the use of mount points, the answer is that there is NO LIMIT to the number of logical drives that can be created in an extended partition. I could not quickly find an authoritative reference to this answer, so I used the empirical approach and created an extended drive on my own computer. I got tired of creating logical drives within that partition at about 30, and could easily observe that this process could go on until I literally ran out of disk space. I'd be happy to send you a screen shot, or invite you to try it on your own computer; it only takes about 10 minutes.
