Hardware & Networking

Computer Hardware is the collection of physical parts of a Computer system. This includes the Computer case, monitor, keyboard, and mouse. It also includes all the parts inside the computer case, such as the hard disk drive, motherboard, video card, and many others. Computer Hardware is what you can physically touch.

Establishing a Computer network allows computers to communicate with one another. In a home setting, you can transfer files and share file folders with another computer; you can attach a printer, scanner, copier or fax machine so that all computers attached to the network can use those devices without having to be individually connected to them. With a wireless network, you can eliminate cables and move freely about your home with a mobile device such as a laptop.
