A person that is generally very good at working with computers.
What is a benefit of a computer?
Well it depends. Do you need to keep in contact with people other than on a phone? Do you need to get immediate research or information and don't have the means or perhaps time to get to a library? Are you good with technology?
If you answer yes to any of these, then perhaps a computer can indeed be very beneficial.

What is necessary to make a remote connection to a person's desktop computer?

How much does it cost to manufacture computers?
It varies vastly by the computer. Some ultra-simple computers, such as ARM 'plug' computers cost less than $10 to produce. While complex systems such as dual-processor 6-cores (12 core) servers may cost over $4,000 to produce alone.
What happens if you disconnect the power supply cord to the hard drive?
If you disconnect the power cord to the hard drive, when you turn the computer back on, the hard drive will not be operational. Additionally, if you leave the IDE (or SATA) cable connected when the power cable is disconnected, the system will take longer to POST because it will try to identify the device connected, but it will not be able to. If it is the only hard drive you have in your system, the computer won't boot up because your operating system is on the hard drive.
How do you know how many words per minute you can type?
Depends. If you mean how many words you type per minute, you simply write a text for 5 minutes (or however long you wish), then count how many words you've written when the 5 minutes are over, and then divide it by 5.
There's several programs that can do something similar to this, though most of them work in a slightly different way.
Most of them work like this:
There's a text on your screen, and you have to type in what the text is reading, and it will then see how many (correctly spelled) words you've managed to type in said timeframe.
http://www.typeonline.co.uk/typingspeed.php is a decent example of this, though, to me, it seems a bit unproffessional.
It is important to calculate your typing accuracy as well. A good website to automatically calculate your words per minute and accuracy for free is called Typing Dude. You can visit the website at http://www.now1technologies.com/typetest . Not only does this website calculate your words per minute and accuracy it shows you the errors you made.
What is an organized collection of information stored in computer-readable form?
"Organized" means similar data will be grouped together on the hard drive. This can be done by de fragmenting your hard drive. This is essential because an HDD can process only so fast... if all similar information is grouped together, it knows where to find it and doesn't need to spin extra rotations to find data.
5 difference of 4th generation of computer and 5th generation of computer?
This is hard to answer, because there is no industry standard for what a 'generation' is. It is entirely subjective.
You will need to define a 'generation' before a comparison is given. IE, there are 3 generations of AMD Phenom II processor, and over 70 generations of AMD processors. There are five major generations in processor bitrate. There are over 400 generations of individual progressments in major computer technology. There are nearly 50 different generations of individual architecture design.
Business entity convention because owner’s assets must not be included with business assets
How is your eye brain and mouth similar to the basic computer?
In a simplified model, the eye could be seen as an input device, similar to a computer's keyboard. Using this analogy, the mouth could be seen as an output device similar to a computer's sound board, with the brain being the equivalent of a central processing unit.
The eye reports input information to the brain, which processes that information and decides on a suitable response for an output. For example, the eye reports sights of a juicy steak, and the mouth speaks the words please may I have this juicy steak.
In the next step, the mouth acts as an input device. While computers have many combined input / output devices (such as a CD-ROM drive, for example), nothing really accepts and digests physical input in the same way a mouth eats the steak.
Can any one suggest you what sort of packaging stuffs shall you use to ship your laptop?
When we send units out at our company, we use a cardboard holder that keeps the laptop suspended in the middle of the box, then some thick foam pads to protect the middle of the unit. Then we stufff it with packing peanuts and double box it. For sending from home, a good strategy is to firmly encase the computer in bubble wrap and then use packing peanuts to keep it immobile in the middle of the box. Always use a box with enough room to pad all the way around, and make sure the computer cannot move or it will slide back and forth during shipping. If you can imagine dropping the box from standing height and think that the laptop would be safe, that's a good amount of padding to shoot for. Another tip: if you're including your ac adapter and battery with the laptop, don't stack them against the top case! If something puts pressure on the box and knocks the adapter or battery into the cover of your LCD screen it may break.
Do any retail stores sell refurbished computer and laptops?
Certified refurbished PCs are laptops and desktops that have been returned to Dell, put through the production process and then again retested to ensure they meet all original factory specifications. Certified refurbished systems may have some observable cosmetic blemishes, but they will not affect performance.

What is the best speed for gaming?
That depends on what kind of games you are considering to play. In order to play the new high-end games with maximum quality you need a very decent computer. The CPU speed could be a single core 3,4 GHz processor or a Quad core 3GHz processor. It all depends on how much money you are willing to spend on the computer or what processors that are compatible with the computer you are using.
If you're wanting to play very old games, some of them relied on the computer clock speed being locked at 4.77 MHz (yes, really), and will run far too fast to even see on a computer whose clock speed is nearly a thousand times greater. However, you can use programs like DosBox to make the game "think" that it's running on an old PC-XT.
