Whether you’re a student or an office employee who frequently works on the computer, you might have experienced one of those “computer emergencies” wherein important files got accidentally deleted. You may know how to retrieve those files from the Recycle Bin or Trash folder, but what if they’re not in those folders anymore? Or maybe the important data stored in your external hard drive or some other form of backup got lost.

These instances show how important it is to have a secure backup for all your important files.

Memory....It's whats for diner!

The chart above illustrates a computer's basic memory capabilities.
non-volatile storage  is memory that remains when you turn the computer off such as the hard drive, SSD drive, flash drive and CD and DVD drives.\
volatile storage is memory that is erased  when the computer is turned off such as the cache memory and RAM.
Windows has had many improvments over the years since the release of MSDOS.

The original release only had input screens until the addition of the GUI interface which completely revolutionized the computer as we know it.  It provided the user with menu's  and visual representations of files.  Previous to this all commands had to keyed manually.

Since the GUI interface many additions have been made including multiple applications,  graphical improvments, voice recognition, mobile devices or just about anything you can think of.

It is only a matter of time until holograms and physical operation are included.

Should you upgrade?

When I was 16 years old and invested $6,000  into the motor of my truck for drag racing,
While doing this a wise man told me, "No matter how fast you make it, somebody's is faster."

I feel that is applicapable to computers aswell. No matter how much money you spend or time you invest someones is better.  To cite Moore's law, the number of tansistors inside a computer will double every 18 months.  So that would mean multiple companies are developing products all in unison so it is more than likely your hardware will be outdated within a few months.  That's a fact. The trouble is determining when your computer is so far outdated that it cannot keep up with modern programming and hardware.
Here's a quick tip.....If it says Commadore 64 on it.... throw it away!

But just in case you don't have a Commadore you need to perform a system evaluation.
Ctrl+Alt+Delete and start your task manager-watch your system usage while your working.  If your computer is having a hard time keeping up thats a tell tale sign you need an upgrade!
Check system requirements for programs online like the newest video game or the newest Microsoft suite.
The newest operating systems also always require the most up to date hardware, so checking that is sure to give you a good idea about your current system. 
It goes without saying that if you want to make DVD's, CD's or Blu-ray's your computer better have a burner!
I would suggest checking consumer reports, checking manufacurer's websites and your local sales fliers!
And after doing the research if your still lost, grab yourself a book!

Organic data transmition is the way of the future!

In a presentation in Dublin, Ireland in March 2010, Google sales chief Jim Haley stated that desktops would be irrelevan
t in three years (
 converge to create a different kind of future than what we’ve known, according to Haley. Do you agree? Why or why not?
 What impact would that have on the types of hardware and software that are the most in demand?
SiliconRepublic.com). Smartphones, notebooks, and the amount of information available online will

The fact that this statement would be argued gives me much anxiety towards our future as a world.

OF COURSE THEY WILL BE OBSOLETE.

There is no way what so ever that desktops will  even be sold in a decade.
Computers are going to be much more advanced in the next thirty years than most people can even comprehend.  The way of electronic data transfer will be obsolete faster than two shakes of a lamb's tail.

The way of the future is organic data transfer, such as TRNA.  There are already protypes being worked on as we speak.  It also gives way to humanitys ability to develop our own artifical "brain".

As far as I'm concerned, computers themselves will be a thing of the past within 30 years as well.
Everything will be based on cognitive thought and physical movements.

Fighting these inevitabilities is futile.

System software

System software is the computers basic operating software, it coordinates between application software and hardware devices.
A computers operating system is is a group of programs that controls how your computer functions. It manages the computers hardware such as the processor, keyboard and monitor.
There are four types of operating systems, single user, single task, multiuser and multitask.
The operating system is custom designed for each unit, based on it's function. These customs designed operating systems are called firmware. smart phones, video games, media players, machinery, computes and other computerized devices.
Some common examples ofoperaing systems are-
Unix- used in networks, multitask and multiuser
Symbian, blackberry, windows mobile, osx, android, webos are all multitask operating systems found in smart phones.
Windows (7), Mac os are operaig systems found on personal computers.
