-plural, contracts "Comp(s)"
-Hardware+Software
-Desktop or Laptop, new forms of hardware emmerge all the time
-What TV shows producers and academy awards ancient voting base(for Oscars) are too old and incapable to know anything more about than "where net is"
-Many thorough idiots think we should care to maintain our hardware, but it's a underdeveloped technology if it endangers itself just by being on(I'm talking dust, humidity and heat, the natural stuff that can damage your hardware over time)
-Are the future whatever they use next, be it another basic material, light or quantum comps, hell, your next console/PC/phone might work as a cloud computing platform. (consult OnLive)
-Every OS has its tricks/ways, cons and pros
-Experinced users can controll their system faster and more efficiently because they know their shortcuts, hotkeys and tricks
Current categorization by OS/pseudo-religion:
Windows = compatible with everything(malware), some releases are more buggy than others, every new Windows has several editions depending how much Microsoft wants to enforce security. Suffers from major obesity because it tries to support everything but then fails, some programs can crash, particularly if you have a 64bit version. Popular(piracy) and a gaming platform as well. BSOD appears (not only)when Hardware fails. The mainstream a reason why qwerty keyboards and mice w/o horizontal scrolling or 5 buttons still rule the lowend in 2011

Mac = largely useless overpriced hipster lure/bling by company Apple that is known to freeze instead of BSODing. They sell it with the hardware THEY like. Objectively making OS X a 64bitwas smart choice. Some pros use it for safety purposes or exclusive programs. Their original mouse design reveals the tradition is clearly "designed for retards". Proof that TV industry is retarded and/or bribed by Apple. The cause of Applectomy. As its only game-suitable API is OpenGL, Valve is almost only company that loves money enough to release games on it. It's stable only because theres hardly any SW or HW for it and noone bothers to develop malware because it is effin niche.
GNU/Linux or just Linux = hacker/pro/server/safety stuff. It used to live in the wild, however some of it was corrupted and commercialized ages ago. Individual distributions of this OS have extra software by default, so in effect you meet this at places trying their best to be safe/cut costs. Has more control when using only keyboard than Windows ever tried. Low end hardware can run only Linux. It's not supported by Onlive or any games really(maybe because of weird control schemes and incoherent distributions getting in the way?). Niche as you can get without going ancient/completely unusable.

The property of a problem being solved by means of a Turing machine.
In other words, can we write a program to solve the problem? If so, then the problem is computable.

The sorting problem is computable. I can sort lists of things based on a common comparator.
The halting problem is not computable.

A device that had different purposes over the years:
'80-90s- a device that allowed children to understand how to code and gave them insight on how things worked, this enriched them and now they are very good adults
2000s- a device that enriches BY FAR 1% of children/ teenagers and horribly degrades the other 99%
The 1% group is the group that has used computers to find out new and interesting information, the group that will defend net neutrality in the future, the group that knows at least basic coding and understands how they are vulnerable online. The 99% group includes people who sit on social media 24/7 and those who will keep reloading the page to comment on Miley Cyrus's comment. Another portion is those who play flash games on their school issued celeron based 1.4 ghz chromebooks, and treat them like magic. These groups usually don't know what a byte is. Another group is those who always say
Dumb guy- are you reading Wikipedia?
Decent guy- yeah it is interesting
Dumb guy- OMG you are so stupid Wikipedia is the most inaccurate website on the internet, those popups on websites are so much more accurate{goes on facebook to post that X guy is reading Wikipedia}
The 99% group usually are those who respond by "GO AWAIYYY" when you tell them to DEFEND NET NEURTALITY. They respond with OMG xxx singer just broke up omg as they look at their 10th iPhone which is an iPhone 7 bought on September 8th. Spread this degradation awareness so the 1% can become 20%.
