I have been using computers for nine years and realized that I did not know much about how it operated, so I decided I should make a site on how a computer works. I know their are other sites that give information on computers but most of them only go part way into how the computer works or are so complicated they are not understandable. So I decided to make this site as an information base for straightforward information on how your computer operates.

I hope to always be adding information to this site, which I will not be able to do without your input. Please tell me if something on my site is unclear or incorrect. Please also send questions and information that will help develop my site. In the future I hope to have different versions of this site, one with simple information, intermediate, and complex information on every section, this is being done now but only partly.

Please send any comments, questions, or especially extra information I could use (you will be credited on my page). Email me at: [email protected]
Note: The information contained in this site pertains specifically to IBM compatible machines.
