SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE
SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE
Hardware is the term given to the physical components of a computer: e.g. keyboard, monitor, system box or floppy disk drive. Software, on the other hand, is electronic information: files, operating system, graphics, computer programs are all example of software. The difference between hardware and software reflects the duality between the physical and mental worlds: for example, your brain is hardware, whereas your mind is software.
Software is the stuff that makes your computer do things for you. The computer without software would be like a home entertainment system with no tapes, CDs, or movies - you have the machine, but theres nothing to play on it. Software is continually developed. Each time the software maker (Microsoft, Adobe, Corel, etc) develops a new version of their software they assign it a version number. Before Microsoft Word 7, there was Microsoft Word 6.0.1, and before that Word 6.0. The larger the developments made to the software, the larger the version number changes. Usually a large change will result in a whole number upgrade; a small change may result in a tenth of a decimal place.
Hardware are those components or physical pieces (things you can touch) that make up the computer. The different pieces of the computers hardware are monitor, speakers, mouse, CDROM, floppy drive, hard drive, keyboard, CPU, RAM, Processor, etc. Each piece plays a role in the operation of a computer.
