There is an increasing variety of computersof different sizes and designed for different purposes. One of the most important considerations when buying computer is deciding how it is going to used. 1. Mainframes 2. Minicomputers 3. Microcomputers
Categories of Computer What is Computer? Categories of Computer Computer can be divided into three board categories : • Mainframe computers (mainframes) • Minicomputers (minis) • Microcomputers (micros) 1. Mainframes 2. Minicomputers 3. Microcomputers

What is Computer? Categories of Computer Mainframes are large, powerful, expansive computers that are operated by a team of professionals and are designed to be used by many people at same time. The most powerful mainframes are sometimes called supercomputers. 1. Mainframes 2. Minicomputers 3. Microcomputers

What is Computer? Categories of Computer Minicomputers are really cut-down mainframes and are no longer very common.The most common type of computer is the minicomputer. It was used to run basic, teleprint, and store 4k of memory for users who couldn't afford or didn't need a supercomputer. A mini computer has different uses among them being scientific calculations, business transaction processing and data base management. They are smaller in size than a normal laptop and are usually used when on the go or from anywhere, which gives them a big advantage. 1. Mainframes 2. Minicomputers 3. Microcomputers
3. Microcomputers What is Computer? Categories of Computer Microcomputers are sometimes called personal computers. The abbreviation PC was originally used for microcomputers produced by IBM Corporation, but it is now sometimes used for other type of personal computers. However, microcomputers produced by Apple Computers in corporated are not normally referred to as PCs. There is a wide variety of microcumputers but two common types are dekstop computers and portables 1. Mainframes 2. Minicomputers 3. Microcomputers
A. Desktop Computer What is Computer? Categories of Computer Dekstop are small enough to sit on an office desk and are relatively cheap. They becoming cheaper and more powerful and are often used for running multimedia programs, i. e. Programs that contains some combination of text, sound, high quality graphics, animation, and video. Multimedia computers need to have a sound facility and usually have a CD-ROM drive. 1. Mainframes 2. Minicomputers 3. Microcomputers
B. Portables What is Computer? Categories of Computer There is an increasing variety of portable micros that can be grouped according to their sizes. They can usually be powered from batteries and are useful in many different situation. However, as computers gets smaller it becomes increasingly difficult to use them with keyboard. One of the reasons that notebook portables are popular is because their screens and keyboard are just big enough to use comfortablely for word processing. 1. Mainframes 2. Minicomputers 3.
