How Computers Deliver Information
All the processing power in the world wouldn't matter much if you couldn't get
output
from a computer. You're looking at output right now on your screen. You told the computer you wanted to view this page and the
software
and
microprocessor
inside it responded by putting the page on your monitor.
Other kinds of output include sound from your computer's speakers and documents printed by your printer. Output can also include things like MP3 files. They allow you to
download
music from the Internet onto an MP3 player you can take with you anywhere.
