A computer is a programmable machine that receives input, stores and manipulates data//information, and provides output in a useful format.

While a computer can, in theory, be made out of almost anything (see misconceptions section), and mechanical examples of computers have existed through much of recorded human history, the first electronic computers were developed in the mid-20th century (1940–1945). Originally, they were the size of a large room, consuming as much power as several hundred modern personal computers (PCs). Modern computers based on integrated circuits are millions to billions of times more capable than the early machines, and occupy a fraction of the space. Simple computers are small enough to fit into mobile devices, and can be powered by a small battery. Personal computers in their various forms are icons of the Information Age and are what most people think of as "computers". However, the embedded computers found in many devices from MP3 players to fighter aircraft and from toys to industrial robots are the most numerous.

How many computers can I have hooked up to my high speed internet?
Q. I have high speed internet through my phone company (zoomtown) I just bought a new computer and am giving my old computer to my brother. How to I hook both computers to the internet. Do I need to get another box for the old computer from the phone company, or do I need to to set up a wireless network on my own?

A. You can connect as many computers as you want. The "box" you refer to is the high-speed modem. That's the device that is directly connected to your ISP, and is the ONLY device directly connected. This modem is called your "gateway" to the internet. When you connect a single computer to the internet, you use an ethernet cable to connect your computer to the modem, which has a single ethernet port. However, if you have more than one computer, you can plug what's called a "hub" to the modem instead, and then plug your computers into the hub. Most hubs have 4 ports, but you can get them with 6 or 10, and even more if you look around. If you have more computers than you have ports, you can plug another hub into the first hub. This is… [cont.]

How to configure a computer to track network computers that contact my pc.?
Q. I want to track all computers (and other) that log into my home pc.I hope for a fail safe method, but under the circumstances it's unlikely. I suspect intrusion into my system with possibly keyboard and screen monitoring. I doubt that I can rely on any pre-existing log files as they have been removed or otherwise tampered with.

How to connect two computers to the internet with one wireless adapter?
Q. i have to computers next to each other, one has a wireless adapter for the internet and the other one does not. How would i be able to connect the computer that does not have an adapter to the one that does so that they can be both connected to the internet. I do not have a laptop.

A. This may or may not work, but it's worth a try: This requires hooking up both computers with a ethernet cable. After you connect them, go to your Network Connections and right click on your Local Area Connection and select Properties. Click the Advanced tab and you should now see a little tick box that says "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection."
