A computer is a machine that manipulates data according to a set of instructions.

Although 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). These 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 a wristwatch, and can be powered by a watch battery. Personal computers in their various forms are icons of the Information Age and are what most people think of as "computers". The embedded computers found in many devices from MP3 players to fighter aircraft and from toys to industrial robots are however the most numerous.

The ability to store and execute lists of instructions called programs makes computers extremely versatile, distinguishing them from calculators. The Church–Turing thesis is a mathematical statement of this versatility: any computer with a certain minimum capability is, in principle, capable of performing the same tasks that any other computer can perform. Therefore computers ranging from a mobile phone to a supercomputer are all able to perform the same computational tasks, given enough time and storage capacity.

How to limit internet speed to specific computers on a network?
Q. My household network consists of a router and 3 other computers connected to it. If I wanted to limit the download speed of a certain computer, what should I do? I can completely remove access to a computer in the router settings, but I only want to remove the power to Bit torrent for that computer.

A. Okay. to do such a thing you would need a higher class router. You are looking into very advanced interfaces to do such a thing, and routers that can do that. are not regular all homes routers. Another way, cheaper and free. is get utorrent. www.utorrent.com It lets you set how much "internet" or bandwidth you want the program to use. Even for uploads. So you can set it to maybe 100 kpbs for download, and 20 for upload. Doesn't affect anything but what u just told it to. Good luck

How have computers changed the ways doctors treat patients?
Q. How have computers have changed the ways doctors treat patients? I have to write an 8 page report, 2000 - 2500 words, and it's due this tuesday. Help me!

A. 8 page report? Goodness. Hopefully some of the more computer savy docs can help. Here's 1-2 pages. Find the statistics on number of deaths due to medical errors per year. Find statistics on number of errors reduced due to electronic record keeping. Find statistics on reduced errors due to electronic prescriptions. That's all I could think of for a research paper. I can tell you how it changed my practice, perhaps that can give you an idea. Instead of relying on hardcopy references, retrieving reference material on computer is faster. Online databases are also up to date with latest information. Accessing online journals or pubmed for research articles can help shed light on possible new therapies to try. Imaging films can be sent in… [cont.]

How many computers can you download World of Warcraft to?
Q. Is there a limit? Or can you just load to as many computers as you need, and the only other thing necessary is a paid account?
Asked by tt10162 - Thu Mar 5 21:24:05 2009 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments

A. You can actually download the game from Blizzard or from any other common mirror out there. You just need an account key to play your own, specified account. Once you have an account and its paid for, you can play it anywhere that has World of Warcraft installed.

A computer is a machine for manipulating data according to a list of instructions. Computers take many forms, from early room-sized complexes to modern personal computers (PCs) and personal digital assistants (PDAs) to tiny embedded systems that add sophisticated capabilities to other devices like toys and appliances.
