I didn't have a whole lot of previous knowledge about computer history. It's not something that has been touched on very much in my education, probably because it is a relatively recent development and has happened so fast. You could really call people like Gates and Jobs pioneers. It's possible that they share some of the same traits as people such as Thomas Edison and Alexander Graham Bell.
I have looked inside a computer before, but did not pay too much attention to what I was looking at. Now I know a little better what to look for when I want to find specific parts. I think our projects will force us to really become familiar with the ins and outs of our specific computer part.
Questions:
If we wanted to find a manual or more information about a particular computer model, is there a good place to look?
In a different class you showed us several technology journals / newsletters that you read and it sounded like there was one in particular that you thought was really good. Which one was it?

Nice reflection. Computer manual - I might look on the manufacturer website. Good question. Usually the only documentation that you receive is on a cd or dvd and if you misplace those... hmm...
Journal - I will see what I can find...
