Computers for Beginners

Computers are shrouded in myths, which attract some and repel others. All these myths are invented by those to whom it is profitable. And it is beneficial to those who themselves use computers for customer service, and those who earn their teaching computer literacy, confusing and intimidating learning difficult and terrible terms, putting themselves and the importance of secrecy shrouding everything that happens inside this "black box".

Myth - A computer is a complicated thing

The computer, in fact, is so complicated thing that the development and manufacture of this device are used high technology, or hi-tech, as they say now. This is such a complicated thing that the creators have taken care and made it just as a very user-friendly.

You also only need to use a computer, rather than digging in his chips. You know how to use television, microwave, VCR, washing machine, car and many other modern things. You do not know how they work, how they work. You're just a good and satisfied users. Same with computer

But we must remember that the computer came up with "bourgeois", ie representatives of the Western world - the capitalists. And they all put on a business capitalist basis. If the computers would, in fact, such complex-to-use devices, they would have been widespread throughout the world. Who would buy them?

In fact, computers are made as simple to manage, children and housewives are happy to use these are complicated machines. Computer created such a simple and easy to use, to sell as much as possible. This is the main "trick" of the market, which everyone should know.

Myth - The computer requires a special training

Better to look at what children do.

Children learn by themselves? - True.

Note once again.

Children do not learn - they will immediately enjoy doing it with pleasure. At the same time using the most scientific method of all existing in the world - "a method of spear." They are not afraid to make mistakes and in the short term, with pleasure exhausting all possible options, button, they quietly use the computer. Be a normal user.

Instructions built into the computer itself, in every computer program.

Computer - it's your friend and is in constant communication with you. If you're at work doing something that is not something which should not do, the computer itself will stop and tell you about it - what are you doing, where it will lead, and how this is better avoided.

Myth - If the computer is damaged, difficult to repair.

For the most timid of users cite the instruction what can and can not do with a computer.



Brief instruction of computer use

Can not!

Beating with hard objects (a hammer stone, stick, etc.) on the expensive parts of your computer - the processor unit and monitor.
Beat the wall processing unit or monitor. Watering hot or cold water, CPU, monitor.
Pick one processing unit or a monitor with a screwdriver, knife, fork, crowbar, crowbar and other similar instruments.
Can!

Poking fingers on the keyboard.
Poking a mouse.

Ask the children what to do.
Experiment - what would happen if ...
Note: Dear computer parts - processor unit and monitor. The mouse and keyboard are much cheaper, even if fancily made. If your laptop is not cheap parts, not counting the bag and adapter, and then on.

Repair is difficult, but the machine itself can repair itself. It also laid the creators. And again, to sell as much as possible computers. Full restoration or a software upgrade conventional computer shuts down for three or four hours without much human intervention. It can make you a specialist or your child. The main thing to remember and retain the necessary information.

Myth - A computer is needed for complex things.

The computer can calculate and build the spacecraft and control their flight from Earth to design bridges and many kilometers of skyscrapers, explore the rights and diagnosis, as well as many other important and necessary cases.

However, this is not all. The computer is also used for such simple and necessary in everyday life affairs such as:

Correspondence - sending and receiving letters
Communicate short messaging - chat
Community Voice - voice chat
Listening to music
Watching movies
Reading books
Finding relevant information on the Internet
Writing articles, etc. - instead of a typewriter
Storing the required information in digital form instead of bulky and dusty folders, boxes
... And much more - can not list all
And all this to learn very quickly and quietly, if ... if you have a normal human desire to enjoy, not more. The rest of you will do your inquisitive nature. Sit down at your computer and enable it. The computer itself will teach you what to do with how to use it.

And if you're still a coward, then let forth a child and watch him. Children of all generations - is the most advanced and progressive part of the population of our planet. But God forbid you do it comments. Never! You will ruin the young shoots and make a child the same coward. And he had the future ahead - his whole life.

So if you are a housewife, and you have only three classes of education, then this is enough to safely use computers and get great pleasure from it. Three classes of education enough to read the letter and understood that tells you your computer.

Stages of learning computer literacy

Beginner Guides: Buying a Computer

Here's how you think, to begin buying computer? Here, suppose you want to buy a computer, but nothing in this do not understand. Where do you start?

Many shoppers buy local advertising newspaper and begin to learn in a row all advertisements relating to selling computers. Incidentally, at present these papers successfully replace advertisements on the Internet. If time permits, tour the many computer shops in town and collect them in prices. However, I do not know why? Probably, the habit remained with the school to collect paper for recycling. Maybe these people think they can independently choose a qualified computer for a price list?.

Understand, sellers shops that make up the price lists, you are much better versed in computers. They were well aware of competitors' prices and constantly compare them. I assure you, dial pack price lists and buried in them you will likely not be able to make the right choice. Believe me, the elementary search of the lowest prices will not give you the desired result.

A lot of this guess, so start buying a computer that seek out friends "specialists" (who seem to be as versed in computers), and start with them intensively consulted. As a rule, "Spices" - are either employees of the workplace, are responsible for computers in the organization, or programmers, too, with the work. Sometimes it's friends of friends, working IT staff or even mere acquaintances or friends who have already purchased a computer and are considered to have advanced IT staff.

Without belittling qualified programmers and software developers in different organizations, I still want to note that seeking advice from such people is not the best option. Why? The fact is that a person serving 10 or 20 computers in any organization, as a rule, except that the circle no more see. I'm not saying that he was behind the times, no. Surely he studied magazines, Internet publications, and certainly knows about the latest updates, but, unfortunately, he could not feel his hands all this, check out live.

Very, very often, it just shows that these "consultants" thought patterns in their care of 10 computers, and the Council, as a rule, something that regularly read in magazines. Typically, this extravagance, of which these people ever dream of, but can not afford. These are people Maximalists not originating from the realities of cost / utility of a computerized piece of iron, but of how much this piece of iron squeezes in such and such a test in some magazines.

C programmers even worse: they are good guys, professionals and hackers are just, but sometimes they absolutely do not know what makes up their own computer. And, most importantly, they are often not interested in how much it all worth it. When buying a computer for the money these people have no value. And for you?

You may ask: "Vitaly, but what do I do?" If I'm in computers do not understand anything, and you say that no one should be consulted, how do then at all? ". Get real, I do not want to tell you that absolutely no one did not need to ask and no one should be consulted. But, unfortunately (and I do this very often faced and still face) many "Special" "consultants" are completely unable to properly and competently advise computer for sale. Therefore, in the extreme case, if you decide to someone for advice, it is best not to rely on the opinion of one person, and listen to a few.

From the same series of "consultants" advisers "- periodicals, including the already mentioned computer magazines. Again, I'm not suggesting you not to read them, no. Of course, sometimes very helpful to receive news about the latest in the field of computers. But we must carefully evaluate the articles in computer magazines, and remember that all these articles are usually written metropolitan journalists (emphasis on the word "capital"), whose respective capitals wages, and in connection with this particular line of thought, almost like programmers. Almost all journalists covering computer topics, as a rule, too maximalists who are only interested in the frequency, core and test results. And the last thing they care about price.

Stop! Here again, a small timeout. After the last paragraph, perhaps you have an idea: "Here, they say, there came a provincial upstart who has the most money there, so now would be to advise the cheapest. But, in fact, I'm not going to advise you the cheapest, not at all. I proceed from the notion that buying a computer should be reasonable and good. That is why the computer need to buy based on your goals.

Let's take an analogy, and you will immediately understand what is being peq. Suppose you decide to buy a car. Immediately a question for you - and why not buses? Buy, for example, such a "Mercedes" two-storey, trunk below a large, powerful engine, etc. I am not talking about the price. In general, with a stock take, "the future". But consider this: why do you go home bus? " And in this example, you know perfectly well that you DO NOT NEED Double-Decker bus and you are home enough ordinary small car.

But with computers the situation is completely reversed. Each buyer for some reason tends to buy a computer "on the margin. Although the situation is completely the same: Why buy a bus if enough small car. I repeat once again (excuse me, if someone took this phrase, but): the computer must be purchased based on your goals.

You can try the very popular in recent visualization method. That is, we must take a sheet of paper and a pen and write everything that you would like to see in your future computer. List all the tasks that you want to entrust your future computer. And in his own words, without any "smart" words and terms. The most basic words, as you understand this.

And then take another sheet of paper and list on it that you DO NOT need in your next computer, and then, without which you can easily do without.

Well, what to do if you do not know why there is a computer and how you want to use it. But just then and we have to turn to your consultants. You know what the main problem most beginners - people have asked the consultants: "What is now selling computers? Explain what model is better than they (computers) are different?" And it would be better to ask is: "'m here and what do computers and how they can use and what can I do with a computer?" And the best show to your counselor the same sheet of paper, in which you have listed the requirements for your future computer.

Incidentally in this formulation of the question Consultant will have a totally different think that you reply. And it is quite possible that he will recommend you the wrong item, which he himself had no money, and he will advise you exactly what you really need and right for your tasks.

But on the other hand, you might say: "So it's so easy! What complex that would list, for which you need a computer?" Uh-uh, do not say so. It is for many people, among other things, it is not very easy task. Let us consider this question with examples.

In any supermarket you can see, for example, a number of TV models, or, for example, vacuum cleaners. They all differ in certain technical characteristics and, of course, price. But no matter how much money did not differ, the TV will always be television. Models may vary design, screen size, however some additional features, but all of them have one of the most important task - receiving the signal from the television image and the reproduction of the images on the screen.

Same thing with vacuum cleaners - there are dust bag or not, washing a vacuum cleaner or not, the primary and fundamental task of any vacuum cleaner - collecting dust in your apartment. But to say what the main task at the computer is very difficult.

Yes, we can say that computer - a device to work with information. But information about the world around us is very, very different. It can be any documents, texts, books, abstracts. These can be photos, video, music, computer games, Internet, English language, programming, interior design, furniture design, car design, accountancy and more for the sea very different information.

And to work with different kinds of information, computers are still slightly differ. For example, if you want a computer to watch the same TV show (and the computer may be able to and it is), it is logical to assume that for this in your computer must have at least a connector for television antenna and the ability to process the signal. And if you do not want to watch TV on your computer, then you, this function does not need.

I certainly understand that you may not know much about computers, not only in themselves, but also in how they can be generally used. But for the optimal choice as a future PC purchases, we ought still to think and determine for yourself what you still want out of a future computer. And, at least roughly, identify the range of tasks that you are going to use it to decide.

And in order to determine this, just, and you can consult with knowledgeable people, and go shopping, to consult with vendors, listen to their opinions. And do not hesitate to ask as many questions to sellers. Do not be afraid to annoy them. Incidentally, you do not buy a stick of sausage. In addition, the computers you probably do not buy every year, so hurry in this matter is not needed.

That's when you decide the terms of the tasks for your computer, you and your consultants, and vendors in the store, and you alone will be a lot easier to pick up the final version of the computer. And that would do it correctly, you must understand, from which property consists of modern computers. But this is a topic for another article.
