1. Introduction

Welcome to the Computer Guide for newbies!

In this guide I try to explain from the beginning how computers work.

No previous knowledge required!

The first chapter tells generally about computer setup, input and output devices, and how the processor, the memory, and the hard drive run apps.

The second chapter tells about the computer memory in more detail. Bits, bytes, and memory addresses are covered.

So, let's get right into it! There's a lot of pictures and not that much text to keep it light and compact.

Next: 1.1. Computer Components
