Types Of Computer Hardware

Computer hardware is a physical part of a computer that executes within the hardware. It is unlike computer software or data that can be frequently changed, modified or erased on a computer. Computer hardware is not frequently changed and so is stored in hardware devices such as read only memory (ROM) where it is not readily changed.

Most computer hardware is embedded and so is not visible to normal users. Below are the different types of hardware's found in a computer.

Ø Motherboard: It is the central or primary circuit board making up a complex electronic system such as a computer. A motherboard is also known as a main board, logic board or system board.
Ø Central processing Unit: A CPU is the main component of a digital computer that interprets instructions and process data in computer programs.
Ø Random Access Memory: A RAM allows the stored data to be accessed in any order. RAM is considered as the main memory of the computer where the working area is used for displaying and manipulating data.
Ø Basic Input Output System: BIOS prepares the software programs to load, execute and control the computer.
Ø Power Supply: Power Supply supplies electrical energy to an output load or group of loads.
Ø Video Display Controller: It converts the logical representation of visual information into a signal that can be used as input for a display medium.
Ø Computer Bus: It is used to transfer data or power between computer components inside a computer or between computers.
Ø CD-ROM drive: It contains data accessible by a computer
Ø Floppy disk: It is a data storage device
Ø Zip Drive: It is a medium capacity removable disk

Get The Internet On Your PSP

You may not know that a PSP can pick up free wireless internet! So many users are blissfully unaware of what their machine is capable of, but it can be quite easy to set up if you know what to do! This guide will tell you exactly how to get internet on your PSP!

Requirements:
You will need to obtain two essential needs before you can start surfing the web with your PSP. You must be able to get some form of wireless internet source. It could originate anywhere, either from within your own home or in your local Starbucks, you just need to be in an area where the internet is available. Psp wireless settings adhere to the 802.11b wireless networking protocols, probably the most common anywhere, so virtually any wireless network connection will work for this. You will also need to get hold of a copy of Wipeout:Pure, which you need to get internet on your PSP.

Ready to start? Now we will start to learn how to get internet on PSP!

Step 1- Switch on the PSP and go to the System Menu, and then enter “Network Settings”. Go from there to “Infrastructure mode”, and select a connection to edit. Select your home connection if you already have one set up. Don't alter the name of the profile, keep it as it is, and leave the WLAN settings alone if they are already set up.

Step2- Go into “Address Settings” click on “Custom” and make sure you leave “IP Address Setting” as Automatic. If you adjust this, you could have a lot of trouble getting internet on your PSP!

Step 3- Go into “DNS Setting” and click on manual. Here we need to enter the address of our web gateway. For this, the most popular one to use is the gateway at Endgadget, so enter the numbers “208.42.28.174” as the Primary DNS IP, and put zeros for the Secondary DNS IP. (0.0.0.0). If this gateway doesn't work for you, you can find alternatives by doing a quick search engine search.

Step 4- In the “Proxy Server” options, select “Do Not Use” Once you have done this, you just need to confirm everything, and when you are prompted to, save it all by pushing X.

Step 5- Launch Wipeout:Pure in the usual way, and go into the Downloads menu. As soon as you are asked to pick a connection, select the one that you have edited in the earlier steps, and you should find the Endgadget web screen right in front of you. That is how it is done! How to get internet on PSP!

As long as you have access to the resource mentioned earlier, it isn't difficult to get the internet on your PSP. When you have managed to get access to it, you will realise what a useful feature it is!

Have a Website Or Business And Need A Logo?

Anyone who wants to establish a presence in business or on the internet with a website will know that a good logo is vital. Unfortunately, those people will also tell you how expensive it can be to get a logo designed for you.

Worry no more, we've found a great solution that is nothing short of a bargain. There is a member of eBay who offers to design buyers (the winning bidders, but he also does buy it now) a logo for whatever their needs. The best part? His example designs are very professional looking and he only charges (at the time of writing this) around £14.oo for buy-it-now and about £11.00 as a starting auction price.

Surely this is a no-brainer. Why spend £300 on a professionally made logo when you can spend £15 on a professionally made logo.

You can check out his page to see what he's offering by clicking here.

Update: We've been in touch with him and he informs us that, if you come across his page wanting a logo but he doesn't have any "on sale" (by that we mean his designing services because he custom makes them) then just message him and ask him about it and he'll list a new project on eBay for you to buy. By going through eBay, it's ensured that they will handle the whole process making this a very safe option.

The best deal i've seen in a long time - Friends!

I had to write about this because, frankly, it's an excellent deal and one that i wish i had known about before i bought it myself for over double the price. The Friends box set which contains all 10 series of Friends can be bought from Zavvi for an amazing £49.99. paid £120 for mine about 6 months ago. The reason for this is because the box which it comes in is the black edition which i, apparently, more expensive to make. So, their getting rid of all stock of this black addition (hence this low price) and from now on they'll just be making the red edition; exactly the same, just different coloured boxes. So, click the link below to bag yourself the best deal this year.

Jeff Dunham Is Brilliant!

I've recently become aware of the ventriloquist Jeff Dunham and i've got to say, i'm impressed. I've never really been a big fan of ventriloquism but this guy has me flored. My favourite of his acts is Achmed the dead terrorist! Achmed, the Dead Terrorist is a skeleton suicide bomber, with a beard and a white turban. He is used by Dunham to perform comedy based on the contemporary issue of terrorism. He is known for yelling "Silence! I kill you!" at anyone in the audience who dares laugh at him, as well as "Holy crap!," and "You racist bastard!". Achmed has become a fan favourite as evidenced by the fact that his video on YouTube has received well over 60 million views, as of August 2008 and is one of the most watched videos on the entire site. Achmed has expressed a distaste for Chinese cuisine and Lucky Charms cereal explaining that the foods "go right through [him]!" Despite the jokes Achmed tells, he claims he isn't Muslim because 'Made in China' is written on his ass. His cause of death is uncertain. In "Spark of Insanity" he said he had a "premature detonation," while in the song "Jingle Bombs" he said he was "shot in the ass by the U. S. Military" while a bomb was strapped to his back.

If you've not seen any of this guy well take a look at the video below which is a scene with Achmed the dead terrorist.

About Us

OK, so you regulars will know all about Pixel-Bricks but there's some new comers who just don't know yet. Primarily, we are a pixel advertising and product review website. We also offer this blog to keep up to date with us as well as to discuss whatever we think you want to hear about; things from our own interests to specific things which we know you might be interested in. Pixel-Bricks started as just a pixel-advertising website so here's a bit more about that part of us.

We, the creators of this website, are a young couple from the U.K.. We were lying down one day talking about our future together and how we'd need to start saving for a home together. The conversation soon moved on to jobs and since we are graduates of multimedia and web design, the idea of making a website that we could run to earn a living came to us; this was the start of what was to become Pixel-Bricks.

After about a month of discussing various ideas for a website, some good, some awful, we finally came up with the concept of this website. This is the second rendition of the website as we have re-designed it. The concept for the website came in three parts. 1 - We would make a website where people could buy space to advertise their own website on. 2 - The website would have a stylish appearance, a style which would attract people of all ages and thus generate the most traffic possible. 3 - The website would be designed in a way that made it stand out from other pixel advertising websites.

We originally chose the name 'Pixel-Bricks' because the original website design was made to look like the advertising spaces that were bought acted as bricks to the overall image of a house. We thought that, by adding the links to the wall of the house, it was almost as if buyers were contributing to the building of the house; the pixels that they had bought became the bricks of this home. Though this is not the design any more, we still love the name and it still applies to pixel advertising in general. Finally, we would also make a blog to go with the website. We would use this blog to keep visitors up to date with what was happening at Pixel-Bricks but primarily, it would be a blog about different ways of making money using the internet. We realised that since Pixel-Bricks is a cheap way of advertising for a period of years then this is obviously great value and will generate our advertisers more custom, making them more money. As a result, it made sense to do a blog about how to make money online. Here's a live banner for the blog which shows the headlines from our most recent posts.

So, to summarise, Pixel-Bricks has been designed and created as a personal project of us, a young couple from the U.K.. We can think of a million different reasons for anyone wanting to make this kind of website but we feel we've been very transparent with our reasons. We're putting our skills to use in a way that enables us to run a commercial website. The website is now in it's second design form. We like to call it Pixel-Bricks V2.0. This websites offers an excellent opportunity for you to promote your own website by placing an ad on the homepage of ours. The ads that you submit will be linked to your own website, generating you more visitors.

We love this website and think it's fun to look at even though it acts as a mass collection of adverts. These advertisements are what make the site what it is; probably the best pixel advertising website on the web. So, maybe now you know more about Pixel-Bricks. If you spent some time on our website already then by now you may feel the need to purchase your own squares on the homepage. If you do, please head to the 'Buy Space' page and be part of this amazing opportunity.
