A computer is a programmable machine that receives input, stores and manipulates data//information, and provides output in a useful format.

While a computer can, in theory, be made out of almost anything (see misconceptions section), and mechanical examples of computers have existed through much of recorded human history, the first electronic computers were developed in the mid-20th century (1940–1945). Originally, they were the size of a large room, consuming as much power as several hundred modern personal computers (PCs). Modern computers based on integrated circuits are millions to billions of times more capable than the early machines, and occupy a fraction of the space. Simple computers are small enough to fit into mobile devices, and can be powered by a small battery. Personal computers in their various forms are icons of the Information Age and are what most people think of as "computers". However, the embedded computers found in many devices from MP3 players to fighter aircraft and from toys to industrial robots are the most numerous.

A. ok this is easy enough... first just plug em into eachother, make sure the lights come on when you plug em in... then go to network connections, right click on the blank screen within the window and click on properties... then you should be able to find your network connections somwhere... this may have been on the left in the little navigation tab depending on your version of windows anyways once you find it right click on your local area connection and click properties again, in there scroll down to TCP/IP, if there are two (v4 and v6 then go to v4) once you have clicked that click on properties again and then set your IP on one computer to 192.168.0.1 and the other computer to 192.168.0.2 and set your subnet address to 255.255.255.0 on… [cont.]

A. Desktops have several advantages over laptops: 1- No battery. Even when plugged into an outlet, a laptop's power is coming from the battery. If the battery is entirely defunct than the laptop may not function even when plugged in. This goes back to the old engineering addage "the more parts there are, the more there is to go wrong." 2- Laptops are harder to service/upgrade. Space, heat, and power consumption are all critical factors in a laptop. Most (98%) of desktops can upgrade a video card with no problem in any of the aforementioned 3 areas. Simply because a laptop is compatible with a graphics card does not mean that it will cool the card efficiently enough for reliable operation. 3- Cost! Desktops offer more computing power… [cont.]
