Byte, The amount of storage required to hold one character.
A set of 8 bits that means something to the computer, like a letter, number, or punctuation
mark.
For example, the byte 01001000 means a capital "H". MegabyteEquals 1,048,576 bytes, or 1024
kilobytes.
The text of a six hundred page paperback book would require about one megabyte of ASCII
storage. bit, A single number, either a 1 or 0, used for counting in the binary
number system.
A single bit cant tell you much, so bits are usually gathered into groups of 8 to make a byte. For
instance, 8 bits can tell your computer you mean a certain letter, number, or symbol like M, 9, o

Circuit board, The interconnection of a number of devices in one or more
closed paths to
perform a desired electrical or electronic function. A layer of a printed board containing
conductors, including ground and voltage planes.
Vacuum Tube, Tubes constructed of a glass or metal container that is vacuum
sealed.
The basic elements inside the tube are: the anode (or plate), the cathode, and the heater.
Used in 1st generation computers.
Transistors, At their most basic level, transistors may seem simple. But their
development
actually required many years of painstaking research. Before transistors, computers relied on
slow, inefficient vacuum
tubes and mechanical switches to work.
Used in 2nd generation computers. Millions of transistors are in a microprocessor.

machine, a server or a laptop. The microprocessor you are using might be a Pentium, a K6, a
PowerPC, a Sparc or any of
the many other brands and types of microprocessors, but they all do approximately the same
thing in approximately the
same way. A microprocessor -- also known as a CPU or central processing unit -- is a complete
computation engine that is fabricated on a single chip. ROM, stands for read-
only memory. A ROM chip is programmed
with a permanent collection of pre-set bytes. The address bus tells the ROM chip which byte to
get and place on the data bus.
RAM, stands for random-access memory.
RAM contains bytes of information, and the microprocessor can read or write to those bytes
depending on whether the
RD or WR line is signalled. One problem with today's RAM chips is that they forget
everything once the power goes off.
That is why the computer needs ROM. Operating System, The
operating system defines our
computing experience. It's the first software we see when we turn on the computer, and the last
software we see when
the computer is turned off. It's the software that enables all the programs we use. The operating
system organizes and controls the hardware on our desks and in our hands.
