Is it bad to update on PC?

I'm assuming you mean updating software. No it's not bad at all, it's recommended that you update software regularly to keep up with various changes in security and technology. If you're talking about hardware (the computer's physical parts) there is still nothing wrong with it, but you may find it expensive to regularly replace it with newer models.

Draw a flowchart to find the sum and the average of two numbers?

The flowchart in deriving the sum of two numbers and its average, you may follow the steps provided below:

# Draw the start symbol then a flow line connecting to item #2 # Draw the init box for the syntax: set variable_Sum=0, variable_Ave=0, Variable_A=0, Variable_B=0 then a flow line connecting to item #3 # Draw the first input box and write variable_A then a flow line connecting to item #4 # Draw the decision box for 'Is variable_A not numeric?'. if yes, draw a flow line connecting to item#3 else draw a flow line connecting to item #5

# Draw the second input box and write variable_B then a flow line connecting to item #6 # Draw the decision box for 'Is variable_B not numeric?'. if yes, draw a flow line connecting to item#5 else draw a flow line connecting to item #7 # Draw the first process box for the syntax: compute variable_Sum=variable_A + variable_B then a flow line connecting to item #8 # Draw the second process box for the syntax: compute variable_Ave=variable_sum / 2 then a flow line connecting to item #9 # Draw the output box and write variable_Sum, variable_Ave then a flow line connecting to item #10

# Draw the end symbol.

Where:

variable_A contains the first number, variable_B contains the second number, variable_Sum contains the sum of variable_A and variable_B, and variable_Ave contains the average of variable_Sum.

Why is it important for a company to completely destroy a hard drive before it recycles or donates a computer?

Today's computer forensics allow for data to be recovered from hard drives even after they have been erased and written over. To fully insure that corporate secrets are not made available to competitors, the best safety is to physically destroy the hard drive.

What is a multi gesture touchpad?

Multi-gesture refers to using more than one point on the touchpad simultaneously to enable macros.

In plain language, it is simply the ability to use more than one finger (multi-touch) to access certain computer features or do certain things (gestures). Lets say you use your thumb and forefinger to "pinch" the touchpad, the computer may then minimize a window or zoom out, depending on how the gesture is setup. On a MacBook, three fingers swiped across the touchpad from left-to-right or right-to-left makes the browser go "forward" or "back" a screen.

Multi-touch has become popular in Apple products, like the MacBooks and iPods/iPhones, but more and more PC touchpad drivers are being released to update current equipment to recognize multi-touch. More than likely, multi-touch screens and touchpads will be the norm on all computer equipment in the near future.

When you try to go to tinierme it won't load the page?

Hmm...

That's weird. If it won't load the page, they are probably doing something on the site. Usually, it will say "SITE MAINTENANCE" OR There is just a lag.

You are building your own PC and buying all the parts separately like Do you have to buy screws and cables too or do they come with it?

The screws generally come with the case. These will include the screws and mounts needed to separate your mainboard from the case to prevent shorting. As for cables, it depends on the vendor. Retail mainboards usually include everything you need to make the board work, but if you have extra drives, you'll have to get them separately if they didn't come with.

If you buy a retail processor, it'll include a generic fan for you to use with it. OEM processors usually leave it up to you to purchase the fan separately; the CPU will come in a plastic case and it's just the processor.

Some tips:

1) Get a decent case. Cheap cases are a nightmare to work with. Spend the $60 instead of the $30.

2) Make sure the power supply that may or may not come with the case is sufficient:

3) Have a PS2 keyboard for OS installation - particularly if you're installing a pre-windows 7 OS.
