I have posted a new article where I talk about some basics of computers, buying computers, what all the acronyms and abbreviations mean and what they mean to you.  Also, I talk about some observations and trends that I see, and in general try to give those not familiar with computers, especially hardware, some ammunition for talking to that sales person somewhere.  It’s a long article, so it will take a few minutes to read, but it took several hours to write so maybe it’s a good trade.  As I think of more things to add, I’ll update it, just like any other article on this site.  Technology keeps changing, and so does information, so I am not afraid to update the information I am collecting here as I see fit.  Feel free to check it out, and let me know what you think.  It’s in the Library section, along with our other articles.
