Nowadays having a computer in your home is crucial. It keeps us connected with everything in the world. If you have a computer you don’t need other things like a phone, a cell phone or a TV. If you want to watch TV you go online and you search free TV. Networks have online all the programs you watch on a TV. If you want to talk to a friend, you login into Yahoo or other application like this one and you can talk to anyone anywhere in the world. And most important it is free of charge. Also, you can get a video reception if you have a web cam.

Today, laptops have become very popular. They are easy to use just like a normal computer but the important thing is that they are very practical. They don’t require that much space to deposit and you don’t have to worry that you don’t have the necessary space for it. Also, it is very useful when you go on a ride because it has a battery that allows you to use it for 3 or 4 hours depending on the model.



But, if you are a traditional man and you want a normal computer you can go and buy one. Some people prefer to buy a computer that is whole from the beginning. It has warranty for the whole thing and if it breaks something you can go to the store’s service where you bought it from. It is not that much of a trouble for you and you don’t really know what it has inside. If you break the warranty and you want to upgrade a component you have to bring to the service, pay a fee and they will upgrade it for you.

For those who don’t know you can build a computer with custom hardware. You just have to buy the components separately. Of course, you shouldn’t do this on your own if you don’t know which the best components are. You have to know of course if the components you buy are compatible with each other and if you will have an advanced computer. For this you need a friend who knows about computers or if you really are interested in an advanced computer you can hire someone who does.



So, if you want to build a computer with custom hardware you will need: the main board which is the most important component because this makes the connections between the rest of the components; the video card which allows you to watch 3D movies if you are interested in this kind of movies and play advanced games; the RAM memory which is important because it determines the speed of your computer; the processor is important as well because it determines the computer’s frequency; at last but not least you have to buy a monitor. This one is important too because otherwise we won’t be able to see anything. These are the major components of a computer and if you really want an advanced one you should consider asking someone for help if you are not into this type of technology. In any case, what you buy today and is considered to be very advanced, tomorrow it might be less advanced. And this is because technology evolves and companies upgrade every day the components making them better and better. This is the way things evolve and we must evolve with them.
