Yesterday in class we did a lot of hands on work with devices with some sort of problem or requires effort to get it to work in the first palce. I worked with a remote control that worked with the computer for a good portion of this time, even with the help of thomas i could not get it to work. The remote was handed to Corey and it worked shortly after!!

As well we had a Power supply quiz in which i got 10/17 on which means that i am imroving from my prievious scores from the first few weeks of school. While we did the quiz we also took out the power supply and put it back in to learn how to do it. We had to make sure that everything was functioning when we plugged it back in.

Today in our class we learned more about A+. We also started on Power Supplies which i never knew much about beforehand. The stuff i knew about power supplies was make sure you got your computer in a surge protector during lightning storms, and how to fix a problem when someone plugs too many things in one area of a house (thanks mom).

Today We learned about RAM and the history of the new versions of it. We learned how how to instal and uninstall RAM, basically you put it in the designated slot on the motherboard, and make sure it clicks in, I also learned if you touch the RAM when  your not grounded with the computer you will fry the circuits of the RAM. I also got a bonus mark for the RAM quiz for shortening the link of the website we were given.

Today we learned about the motherboard, along with the sizes like ATX miniATX etc. Today we also learned how to attack and remove a motherboard onto a computer. We also had our hair washed. One thing i need to remember for myself is that PicoATX is smaller than miniATX

Now I didn't not post a blog for Friday September 13th so I am doing it now.

What our class did last friday was we learned a lot about Hardware and the basic history of how it came to be now. There were a lot of acronyms that we learned like SATA and ATA, and SCSI. I found it interesting how many different versions of ATA were created in the years that computers were developed. I find it crazy and hard to believe that our technology has advanced so fast. Just imagine in 10 years we could see terabit USB sticks for 10$
