COMMON BELIEF AND MYTHS ABOUT COMPUTERS

People are having misconceptions about computers. They have different statement of a certain thing about computers. Some might be possible, some are very impossible. Well, they need to improve and testify that their belief is true. Here are some belief or myth about computers.

Myth 1:  You need to upgrade tour computer if you want it to perform faster.
  •  Having a new computer hardware is a very obvious way to speed up your computers. But it's not the only way to speed it up. There are different factors that determined the speed of your computers. Upgrading your memory is still another way to speed it up but it is not the main thing. The things that slow down your computer are the programs that you have on your computer. If you have a lot of files in your PC, then it will take time for your computer to read all of it especially when you are just turning it on. That means, your computer will perform a little bit slower. The tendency of your computer is to load and read all your files.

Myth 2:  Big brands of computers are the best.
  •  Famous brands like Dell essentially piece together a computer. They are the ones who pick and choose the pieces to make a computer package. They also choose some software, give a warranty and then sell it to you. Somehow, buying the big brands of computer is an advantage but the downside of it is that there are limited choices. The parts that they chose for a computer package is quite expensive. So, the thing is, you need to maximize your budget and look for much cheaper parts yet a good quality one so that you can spend less on your computer.
Myth 3: The computer is smarter than you are.
  • It's obviously not true because computers do not think at all. They are just programmed by us, humans. We can control the computers. Humans made it in the first place so this myth is not true.
Myth 4: You need to be smart to use a computer.
  •   This myth is not true because in our present world, even a five-year old child knows how to use a computer. Today's programs are designed to be used by people who have no math skills, no programming skills, either. It doesn't matter who you are and kind of person are you. You can use today's computers and their programs to do things.
