Computers

Ending the current computing session and stopping power flow to the unit; either by pressing and holding the power button (hard shut-down), starting a shut down process via your operating system (soft shut down), or in serious cases pulling the power cord from the computer (crash shut down).

There are computer optimization suites that will handle cleaning your computer's registry and make it a simple process. Ashampoo, TuneUp Utilities, RegSeeker, Registry First Aid and Advanced WindowsCare will all clean your registry.

The most famous manufacturer of computer processors is IBM. The most famous manufacturer of computer processors after IBM is AMD.

It is stable and more or less likely to be permanent (printed media), it takes only a few bits in a computer system hard disk/storage medium to be corrupt for an entire document to be corrupt rendering an the document unreadable .

Same as duplex radio comms, where there are several stations on the network at the same time, except telegraphy usually refers to landline communications. ie: several telegraphic operators transmitting to each other, on the same frequency, at the same real-time.

It depended on your needs. For example a gaming computer would cost about 1000-2500$ ,while a computer used for simple tasks (i.e. web browsing, email) would cost about 500-800$

Unless they have invented a wireless transfer method for digital cameras, then transferring an image from the camera to the PC with out the device connected to the PC in some way is impossible.

it will just show you being offline all the time but if you change your name that wont show for them.

An effect is what happens after you do something. For example, if I spill a drink , the effect would be the drink spillling out the cup . Another example , if I broke a plate, the effect would be my parents punishing me.

the pointer on the computer screen is called "cursor"

Try recharging it and then pressing the On button. If that doesn't work, get it checked out by the nearest IT store. What your describing can be caused by many things, so getting it checked by an expert would be best.

On AMD Processors yes but is only recommended for advanced users who know how to tweek the computer properly. If you don't know how to over clock you can burn up your processor. It also takes a new heat sink and fan for the processor to compensate for the heat. Some Intel processors I heard are capable of being over clocked but not recommended.

Online retailers that sell different skins for laptop computers include retailers such as Amazon and Overstock. Alternatively, you can also purchase laptop skins from online stores such as Office Depot.

Apple Inc. is, according to Apple's own statements, a hardware company. The Mac OS (Operating System) is provided by Apple specifically to run on Apple Hardware including its line of Desktops, Laptops, iPhones, iPod Music Players, and Tablet computers to name a few. Mac OS X (currently 10.6 code named Snow Leopard) is being used on Apple's Desktops and Laptops. There is a special OS for the iPhone and iPod which is really a very simplified OS that has much of the look and feel of the Apple Computers and Laptops. The iPad tablet basically runs the same OS as the iPhone and iPods except that it has added capabilities mostly for the larger sized screen on the iPad.

The Mac OS allows humans to interact with programs developed for Apple Hardware. Many of these programs are developed by Apple itself but there is also a wide range of third party applications from what might be mislabeled as competitors such as MicroSoft. Microsoft is in fact not a competitor since MicroSoft is a Software company and Apple is a Hardware company. Microsoft has produced many applications for Apple including Microsoft Office and even the Windows Operating systems include some considerations by MicroSoft Developers to enable it to run smoothly on Apple Hardware.

Adobe, another Software company of note, also produces many exceptional software programs for Apple Hardware. Among these are inDesign (Publishing), DreamWeaver (Web Design and Publishing), FireWorks (graphics), Photoshop (graphics), Flash (rich content web development), and several other invaluable tools.

The arts community including Film Makers, Musicians, and Print Media regard Apple Hardware highly and there are very few professional artists today that do not use Apple Hardware and its Operating System on a daily business for their work.

To summarize, the Mac OS (Operating Systems) provides the interface by which we humans can interact with a variety of Software produced by both Apple and third party developers and the machines that Apple Inc. produces.

In the Mac community, we say it helps us "Think Different" which is an age old Apple slogan. An insider joke in the Mac user community implies that the reason Apple computers and Mac Operating Systems are so good is that they were reverse engineered from the 1950s crashed UFOs at Roswell New Mexico - no one actually believes that of course but it's part of the fun of being in the Funtastic Apple community.

It is just another platform of computers, like Windows PC. Generally, I believe Mac is better. Some oppose. The two different platforms look different, have different features and may be faster than the other. The only problem is that most people run on Windows, and the two different OS (Operating Systems) do not understand each other, so buying a game for Windows and running it on a Mac would not work.

When you spend most of your time in front of a computer and do not feel like leaving it even for a moment, whenever you are out, you feel like getting back soon to your computer, these are the signs that you need a computer addiction treatment.

A computer may be backed up by using backup software and then restoring all information using the same software by means of a step by step wizard. All new computers are sold with some version of backup software already installed such as Microsoft Backup Utility. More features may be obtained by purchasing a third party program.

Using proper cables, hook up vidcam to PC through the USB port. Vidcam may then appear like an additional "drive" from which you can copy files from the camera to a specific location on your hard drive. Sometimes, this requires a software application to accomplish, depending on camera make.

ATM (Automated Teller Machine) is a computer. It has a small display and something similar to a keyboard (even if it doesn't look like one). It runs a program that is usually written by the bank. The program could do anything but banks usually follow a pattern.

Most banks start by asking for the language. They then ask you to insert your card.

This card has a magnetic strip on the back that it reads information about your bank account (sort of like a diskette on a PC). It uses this information to look up your information and decide what to do next. Usually this is to have you enter your password. After that, it's up to the program to decide what to do next.

As for the equipment, banks usually buy the ATM as a single piece but it is actually made up of components. There are several different computer types but let's discuss this as if it were a PC. There would be several PCI slots. Each PCI slot would have a specialized card to support the equipment. One slot would be used for the modem (or network card) so it can be managed from the main office and can obtain information it needs from the central computer where most information is kept. Another slot would be for the card reader where you stick the ATM card in. The money dispenser would be another. I suspect that the deposit slot is part of the money dispenser. The display and keypad probably use the keyboard and display connectors.

Home computer desks can be sold at any office supply store or retail store such as Walmart.com or Target.com. The style and range of price will depend on what store a person will want to buy from. It is best to shop around before deciding on one.

Good question - it all depends on what is meant by "small computer". It's safe to say that the computers of the 1950s were not small, as most of them filled large buildings. By the 1970's data processing computers had reduced to the size of large fridges, so they were certainly small by comparison. The end of the 70's saw a range of personal computers that could sit on a desk. The IBM PC was launched in 1981 / 1982 and was regarded as the first of the "professional" desktop computers although it didn't advance the technology to any great extent when it was launched. Backtracking a few years, microprocessors were developed in the 1960s in support of the NASA space program among other projeccts. The Apollo missions carried computers based on (I believe) the 6502 micro-processor, a computer chip about 2" long and 1/2" wide. the 6502 sported a staggering 64 Kbytes of memory (2 Gbyte in today's PCs is 32000 times as large) and ran at around 4MHz (modern PC's run about 500 times as fast and typically process 32 bits of data simultaneously compared to 8 bits for the 6502). Despite the meagre processing power, the 6502 and the competitive Z80 performed some incredibly powerful tasks and both processors can still be purchased today. My vote for the first "small computer" is the 1960s which saw the introduction of the 6502 and Z80.

You do not have to but it helps your computer so it isn't overused because computers don't last forever and if it is not off it is being used so it will not last as long. Also if your computer is on it uses energy so turning it off will save you money. Even by turning your computer off it is not truly off if you take out the cord to the outlet then it will be.
