Types/Kinds Of Computer

In this article, I have described about the different types of computer. There are five different types of computer which are personal computer, laptop computer, palmtop computer, mainframe and super computer. Read the article and get the information about different types of computers.

(a) Personal computer (PC) :

The personal computer is also known as PC and a personal computer (PC) are used for any general-purpose computer. Personal computers generally are those whose size, capabilities, and original sales price make it useful for any single person and individuals, and which is intended to be operated directly by an individual person or the end-user with no intervening computer operator. As you all know that personal computers are generally contrasted with the batch processing and according to the time-sharing models of computer which allowed the larger, more expensive and beautiful mainframe and minicomputer systems to be used by many individuals and peoples, usually at the same time. These computers have large data processing systems that require a whole-time staff to operate the computer efficiently. Personal computers can be connected to a local area network (LAN), either by a wireless connection or a cable. Nowadays, modern personal computers often have connections to the Internet, allowing access to the WWW means World Wide Web and a wide range of other resources. It is a good computer as for a single person or individual.

 

(b) Laptop computer:

Hello friends, now next type of computer is laptop. In these today's modern world maximum peoples have laptops. A laptop also has of the same components as a desktop or a personal computer has components. Laptops have components like a keyboard, computer, including a display, a keyboard, speakers into a single unit and a pointing device such as a touch-pad (also known as a track pad) and/or a pointing stick. You know that laptop computers are also sometimes called notebook computers, notebooks or notebooks. A laptop computer is a personal computer for mobile use. Nowadays, there are many laptops which have many inbuilt facilities like the WiFi or wireless adapter. There are many best companies of laptop like dell, lenovo, acer, etc. Laptop computers can be easily taken from one place to another. So now it is proved that laptops are better than personal computer.

(c) Palmtop computer:

 

Now, the next type of computer is palmtop computer. Palmtop computer means the computer that uses pen. The use of palmtop, or handheld, computers is rapidly increasing in the modern days. Palmtop computers are generally a computer that has a small screen and compressed keyboard and is small enough to be held in the hand. Because of their small size, most palmtop computers do not include disk drives but many palmtop computers contain PCMCIA slots in which an individual can insert disk drives, modems, memory, and other devices. Palmtops that use a pen rather than a keyboard for input are often called hand-held computers. A palmtop computer is a very small computer which you can hold in one hand.

(d)Mainframe computer:

Mainframe computers are those computers used primarily by corporate and governmental organizations for critical applications and bulky applications. The definition of mainframe computer is - A data processing system employed mainly in large organizations for various applications, including bulk data processing. It is a very large and expensive computer capable of supporting hundreds of data storing functions. A mainframe (also known as big iron) is a high-performance computer used for large-scale computing purposes that require greater availability and security than the another computer.

(e) Super computer:

 

A supercomputer is a computer that performs at or near the currently highest operational rate for computers and supercomputer is a computer at the front-line of current processing capacity, particularly at the higher speed of calculation. In 1960s supercomputers were introduced.
