I don't think it detests it. I could be wrong. It might detect it, but I doubt it detests it.
It can simply be called a "cursor", but you can also call it a "text cursor" to tell it apart from your mouse cursor.
Difference between dfd and flow chart?
The program flowchart describes boxes that describe computations, decisions, interactions & loops. It is an important to keep in mind that data flow diagrams are not program flowcharts and should not include control elements . A good DFD should * have no data flows that split up into a number of other data flows * have no crossing lines * not include flowchart loops of control elements * not include data flows that act as signals to activate processes.
How are the devices inside a computer connected together?
The USB port is a port used to connect outside devices with a compatible USB port to the computer. A few examples of these devices are USB key drives, tablets, and printers.

no notebook laptops can not play games
yes, you can play games - though nothing too spectacular.... system shock 2 and Deus Ex play fine on mine. You'll need to have the game as a .bin file or something similar, then mount with 'virtual clone drive'. (don't use magic if it's win7).
Enjoy ;)
Which is considered a direct entry input device?
Let's see. your question is too wide, but I think that by "input" your refer to the devices that connect into your computer. Among them you have the regular ones (keyboard, mouse) and then a webcam, a scanner, a print scanner, a microfone. They all provide data to the computer. Out devices are the screen, printer, speakers, etc.

Is the emachines computer a good kind of computer?

How can one create a disk image recovery package for their computer?
Really, the easiest way is to just dump everything on your computer onto a CD or memory box. CD's will generally not be large enough, so try and find a large memory box. My friend has a 1 TB box; that's 1 terabyte (1,000,000,000,000 MB) of memory--more than enough (the average computer has at the most a few GB of memory).
If you relay want recovery disks contact the computer manufacturer.
What are the considerations in choosing a memory?
What works for me and others is - next time you get a new computer, get as much memory as you can afford both RAM and Hard Disk. That way any software you have will run as fast as possible
Types of Ram Minimum required ram for motherboard vis-a-vis the size of the HDD and the applications that needs to run on it. Server type of computer needs more RAM to accommodate file serving activities. Applications such as Visual and Graphical in nature require more than command-line type of application. Data transfer speed is also necessary, as well as the technology used in the development of the RAM, Disk, and any storage media.
eg: Harddisk RPM (Revolutions per minute). Same for DVD, CD-ROM, and TAPES.
RAM Data transfer rate in Megahertz. Same for Semiconductor Storage Drives(SSD)
Storage size of the memory is also needed (Physical or Logical Size).
The way the memory is managed by the computer (architecture and organization)
Speed, capacity, latency, form factor, heat/voltage, pair matching, error correction, MTBF, manufacturer/assembler
speed
compatability
maximum memory allowed
size shape model
