This chapter was mostly about the in's and outs of a computer, for instance the system unit is a boxlike case that houses the electronic components a computer uses to process data. I a more simple form it is the hard casing around the computers insides. Also this chapter taught the difference between Bits and Bytes. A Bit which is short for binary digit is each off or on digital value. A Byte is when eight bits are grouped together as a unit. There are many other things that this chapter talked about like CPU, Memory, types of input etc. My level of interest was caught with the storage devices it blows my mind with how advance we are with storage devices now in days because when have up to 10 GB jump drive that are the same size or smaller than a lighter. This is amazing at the size they were able to reduce the memory to, they have expand is memory size but decreased in physical size.
I would like to just say that this class has been very helpfull to me because it has helpede me remeber all of the past skills that I have already learned as well as taught me new ones. I also have gained a new appeciation for technology and the good it can do for today's society
