Heh - I'm an old fart when it comes to computers. I started back when "building your own computer" meant you had to own a soldering iron and wire wrap tool. My dad and I built a computer based on the 8080a intel chip that used toggle switches to control addressing and data, and my first program just counted down a row of LEDs (the little red ones, not a fancy alphanumeric display).
Today I use Macs, but I'm a systems engineer at a major telecom company, and I build systems and networks that run the internet. So I think I know a *little* bit about 'em. :D

I think I know alot about it....using it anyway. I don't know all the particulars about the hard drive but can find my way around doing things on it. It's pretty much just a matter of searching for me. I try to utilize as many programs as I can too.....I make movies for wedding etc. and since I am a writer and like photography I really use it alot. As far as the interior parts....I don't know a thing!

I know little more about my computer. I have intel 845 motherboard, pentium 4 processor, 256mb ram. My pc is 3 years old and I have not upgraded my pc till now. I have that old configuration now. I have windows xp operating system in it. I have experimented a lot with my pc. I learnt most of the things myself by experimenting with the pc. Initially I was sacred to edit registry, now I can make modifications to registry to tweak my system. I was worried about viruses before, now I have understood which programs to install, which one not to install.

I know pretty much about my computer, like how it is put togheter, and what pieces. I got a P5K motherboard, Intel Core 2 Duo 8400, XFX GeForce 8800GT just to mention some. And I know about the system it is running, Vista Home Premium.
So yes, I know about my computer.
