produced, overtime this could cause problems if certain people do not do their jobs. This subject is trash, it grows every day, every minute more is produced, and if trash-men do not pick up the trash that is produced and clean it up then it could cause some problems. Who wants to be a trash-man? Who wants to be the one to pick the trash up, that others produce? Ladies and gentlemen, we are running out of trash service workers. We need more workers in the field of sanitation services because they keep
back and forth. Since God was at the top of Jacob’s ladder, the ladder in the orchard symbolizes the apple picker’s path that will take him to God (Genesis 28:10-19) Although the speaker probably used this ladder daily to climb into the trees to pick apples, Frost makes the ladder a symbol for the speaker’s path to Heaven.

Why the 1964 Operating System by IBM was so important to how computers are made today? Gary Tibbals Fountainhead College of Technology During a press release April 7, 1964 IBM Board Chairman Thomas J. Watson Jr. announced this was the most important product in the company’s history. (unknown, IBM, 1964). IBM knew that this was a special system due to how the system support was on a wide array of applications and it was the first operating system to require direct-access storage devices. (Hosch
ratings on Microsoft products to other products, this would be more used as just to see what the customer would pick if they had exposure to other products. By having a little better insight on the industry it could help in knowing if Microsoft is truly a monopoly over the industry or if other companies are involved in the market. If Microsoft truly has the best product then you cannot fully take that away from the benefiters being us the consumers. As far as the Internet Browser, Microsoft’s Internet
Q.1 a) What is meant by operating system? Define it in detail with the help of suitable examples. Answer: The 1960's meaning of an Operating system is "the programming that controls the Hardware". Not with standing, today, because of microcode we require an improved definition. We see an operating system as the program that make the equipment usable. In short, an operating system is the set of programs that controls a computer. A few illustrations of operating systems are UNIX, Mach, MS-DOS, MS-Windows

A computer system consists of hardware and software. Hardware is the slang word for the physical components?keyboards, mice, circuit boards, monitors and cables. Hardware needs some maintenance, such as appropriate, safe cleaning, and must be protected from dust and heat. Dust buildup can even cause overheating. Some maintenance, especially moving computers, is best done while the equipment is off. Keep track of your hardware instruction manuals. Use a notebook to keep track of your equipment?serial
UNIX VS NT To build a good and stable network is extremely difficult. It takes a team of very knowledgeable engineers to put together a system that will provide the best service and will forfill the need for the companies users and clients. There are many issues that have to be resolved and many choices have to be made. The toughest choices IT managers have to make, are what will be the best server platform for their environment.

launched its first version of Windows version 1.0 sparking the competition between Microsoft and Apple. ('Introduction to Microsoft Windows') Microsoft is better than Apple because, people are more familiar with Microsoft Windows rather than Mac OS (Operating System) X. It is easier and cheaper to upgrade Microsoft's software and hardware rather than the Mac PC, and Microsoft's corporation also has much more to offer to the public than Apple Inc. It is true people are more familiar with Microsoft Windows
Advantages and Disadvantages of ICT ICT has made my project easier to do. Making a catalogue is a long process, involving a lot of design and research plans, using a computer and IT based materials has cut down the time it would take of I had done it manually. For example, before starting to make my catalogue I had to do some research on the items I wanted to advertise, using the internet was a faster more efficient way of doing this. The internet showed the websites I needed to go
“UNIX was the first operating system designed to run on ‘dissimilar’ computers by converting most hardware specific commands in machine language into an independent programming language called ‘C ’” . UNIX was the basis of AT&T’s telephone system and the government’s wide area network system. Then it became the basis of communication between engineers and scientists, and eventually the basis of communication for everyone worldwide. It has held this remarkable spot since 1969. However, in the 1990s
