What dangers are there for a society which depends on computer screens rather than face-to-face contact for its main means of communication?

One of the dangers of communicating between computers is that the traffic between them can be intercepted by a third party. Unless the information is encrypted, secrets between two companies can be read by a competing company, which could use the information for its own good. This is a relatively small risk in computer communication today however because of the use of Diffie-Hellman key exchange, or similar variations, between the two parties. Information can, using this method, be encrypted so strongly that it would take all the worlds computers combined millions of years to crack it.

How does a desktop computer compare to a laptop computer?

If you're storing a lot of big files, (i.e. Videos, pictures) that take up a lot of memory, and granted that mobility isn't an issue, then you would definatly wants a desktop. They're much cheaper because they're not trying to cram so much into such a small space. Not to mention that keyboards, mouses, screens, speakers, and other various accessories for your PC can be available without having to set up your workstation. (Not to say that a notebook can't be used in desktop configuration.)

Where can one purchase a wifi card for their laptop?

If the laptop being considered has been thoroughly researched so any needs are addressed, consider comparing WIFI capable laptops online at Amazon, Walmart, Target, or Best Buy. These sites have a large enough customer base to have detailed reviews to detail the full experience, from ordering to received shipment. To provide additional certainty, visit the aforementioned stores that have physical retail locations nearby. An in-person visit will provide a hands on way to find a laptop that feels right.

Who offers remote desktop connection apps for a Mac computer?

A good remote desktop software application for the Mac can be found at LogMeIn which allows a secure connection from an Ipad or Iphone. Alternatively GoToMyPC offer the same service with a free 30 day trial.

Why arent MacS able to get viruses?

Good question. I've heard several "theories" about that. One is that the proprietary nature of Apple products makes their security technology less available to hackers. Another is that as Apple only has about 10% of the market, hackers generally don't want to waste their time developing viruses that would only impact a small portion of the computer industry. Another is that a lot of hackers have a certain personal enmity against Bill Gates, Microsoft, and others who they feel are trying to dominate the industry and freeze the little guys (like themselves) out. Whatever is behind it, it's true...Macs have very few problems of this nature. I have a Mac and I love it!

AnswerTechnically it's not "the rest". All of the Microsoft series of Operating systems tend to be very prone to viruses. IBM compatible hardware is no more prone to viruses than the apple series or mainframes, but the Operating system and many of the applications certainly are. Microsoft Outlook is almost a virus magnet.

If you want to run a PC based system that is effectively virus proof, try Linux or any of the commercial Unix products. Linux and Unix are even more virus resistant than the Mac.

Answer

See the link below that addresses differences between Windows and Linux. This report highlights many inherent design flaws that make the system vulnerable and hard to stabilize:

Windows has only recently evolved from a single-user design to a multi-user model

Windows is Monolithic by Design, not Modular

Windows Depends Too Heavily on the RPC model

Windows focuses on its familiar graphical desktop interface

Why computer is important to our community?

Computers and technology make things possible on many levels that would not be if computers did not exist. Computers are able to handle large amounts of data for research which is used to make advances in the medical and scientific worlds. Computers are also making the world a "smaller" place through communication at real time. In addition through email, and digital files, the amount of waste produced is less.

Which device allows the user to record or send their voices into the computer?

A microphone is a sound (audio) input device. Many computers also feature a "line-in" audio input port which can accept a stereo sounds signal, for example from a HiFi component.

Speakers, headphones and "line out" connectors are all audio output devices.

Inside the computer and is the part that changes the electric current into a form that the computer can use?

The power supply changes the 120v ac 60 hz (in the us and canada) to dc 12v, dc 5v, and dc 3.3 v that the computer components can use. The power supply is rated in power supplied as watts of power.

How will a computer look like in the future?

Nobody can foretell the future, so we can only speculate that, based on the trend of the last 10 years, computers will become smaller, faster, more connected, and might be moving away from the traditional keyboard-mouse-and-screen paradigm of "traditional" personal computers or laptops.

Consider modern smart phones or tablet computers, or experimental models built into a pair of glasses for an example. Today, these are devices ideal for consuming content. It is probably safe to assume that future generations of these devices will be even smaller, even lighter, even faster, with longer battery life and better network connectivity in almost any location including fast-moving trains or airplanes.

There will probably always be a PC-like group of devices, which are better suited for creating content such as graphical work, computer software, or simply writing a text like this one. Personally, I think it likely that these devices continue to use input devices similar to keyboard and mouse (with the possibly more wide-spread addition of voice input). However, I think it possible that computers aimed at content creation will move towards using large touchscreens, possibly laid out flat on a desk rather than standing up, similar in the way of high-end graphics tablets or some experimental devices examined by Microsoft.

Component that must be compatible with every other components in computer?

The motherboard. Every single part of the computer plugs into the motherboard in some way or another, which is why you start with the motherboard when designing a computer.

What are mini computers super computers?

A minicomputer (colloquially, mini) is a class of multi-user computers that lies in the middle range of the computing spectrum, in between the largest multi-user systems (mainframe computers) and the smallest single-user systems (microcomputers or personal computers). The class at one time formed a distinct group with its own hardware and operating systems, but the contemporary term for this class of system is midrange computer, such as the higher-end SPARC, POWER and Itanium -based systems from Sun Microsystems, IBM and Hewlett-Packard.

How do you get a file from another computer?

You can copy it onto a removable media, such as a floppy disk, a CD or a memory stick.

If the computers are networked, and you have permissions, and the files are made 'shared'. You can navigate to the file location on the other computer, click and drag.

Are HP desktops reliable computers?

This depends on your computer lifestyle. For basic usage, HP is pretty reliable but may be quicker to break down than Macs or other PCs. Some find it worth the extra bucks to purchase higher end computers for longer lasting results, but technology is changing quite rapidly.

What are the importance of home keys in typing?

The home keys... provide a 'reference' point for touch-typists. They have small ridges on them that you can feel - enabling you to find them without needing to look at the keys.
