School computers

School computers are not something you really care about that much and even if you drop them it's okay. That is because they never break even if you drop them a thousand times and they are indestructible

"That person is such a school computers"

computer guru

Someone who is extremely skilled with computers. A step above your run-of-the-mill computer genius.

When the Internet stopped working, Dave installed an Internet proxy server on his phone (which still had Internet), and reconfigured their wireless router to forward TCP/IP packets through his phone so that his family could still watch Netflix on their laptops. He is quite the computer guru!

Computer Show

Computer Show™ was a web show starring Mars Argo and Titanic Sinclair. They were directed by Tony katai, Titanic's friend. The show itself lasted from 2009 to 2014, but then it suddenly stopped, due to Mars and Titanic breaking up. Since then, they were deleted from Mars' and Titanic's YouTube channel, but there are tons of re-uploads.

~ Man, i really miss old Computer Show™ days...

- Same. I loved seeing Mars and Titanic do random stuff :(

Apple computer

Originally designed as an educational tool in the 70's it was marketed as the first computer small and cheap enough to be owned by individual consumers. Touted as the first "personal computer" and simple enough that a child could learn to operate they gained contracts with U.S. schools. They had 2 main competitors IBM which focused on business applications and Commodore who focused on entertainment (games and media).

As each improved it's side applications Commodore had trouble in the market as businesses leaned heavier on IBM and Apple had contracts with the U.S. educational systems. People saw games and media as frivolous and Commodore filed bankruptcy. However Apple snatched up bits of it and started to develop visual media which is still it's bragging point today.
IBM set it's sights on international markets and set a standard for clones and compatible systems working with Microsoft they developed the windows operating system and truly became personal computers globally.

Apple, although making models for individuals, has somehow gone to market as simply "Apple" all others systems are called PC (personal computers).

A closer look shows this to be true. IBM compatible computers have programs written by anyone and used by individual preference.

Apple is developed by Apple, licensed by Apple and largely slow or incompatible with any other systems They cost 2-3 times more and have a cult like following of hipsters and people who think they know more than everyone else.

I got the most expensive computer on the market!

Oh, really? What kind of Apple computer did you get?
