Computer technologies have, in the past decade, advanced so fast, that the consumer market can barely keep up. We have gone from the first IBM hard disk drive, which was taller than a man and stored a whooping five megabytes of information to supercomputers, such as Deep Blue, that can outpace the world's best chess player at his own game! Indeed, computer technologies have grown so expotentialy that if a tree grew at the same pace in 20 years time that tree would be taller than five Sear's Towers stacked ontop of each other! To those few people that are in the "know" about computers, this phenomonon is known as Moore's Law. This isn't exactly scientific law but it basically means that the amount of information that can be stored on any given amount of silicon has roughly doubled every year since the introduction of the integrated circuit (IC) in 1962. This "law" was introduced by a man named Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Intel, corp. His law held until the late 1970s, after which it slowed to every 18 months, where it sits now. So, while keeping ahead of the PC market is pretty much impossible, you can choose from any of the below listed articles and learn about the various mechanisms and oddities that reside within your computer.
