Computer terms

Computer terms are very diversified and getting “sophisticated” as the technology of the internet becomes more and more advanced. Therefore I’ll list below some useful computer terms by alphabetical order:
ADSL: Short for asymmetric digital subscriber line, a new technology that allows more data to be sent over existing copper telephone lines.
Affiliate: An affiliate is a person or company that advertises and promotes other companies products in order to make a sale. Sometimes you can lead customers to the company website, and if a product is sold you will receive an agreed share of the sale price. Popular affiliate sites include Clickbank.com and Ebay.com.
AGP: (AcceleratedGraphicsPort) is usually located near the white PCI slots on a Motherboard. This is where you install a video card for better graphical performance. Most motherboards now come with onboard sound and video which is top quality, however when you install AGP video it removes pressure from the computers resources.
Application Software: Or simply application is a computer program that performs tasks that the user wishes to perform. It could be Microsoft word and you might use it to write a letter or Adobe Photoshop to edit a photo.
Animation: A simulation of movement created by displaying a series of pictures, or frames. All of these pictures put together can make a computer animated gif, which will be a moving picture. You can also animate writing, banners, and even entire websites. A cartoon on television is one example of an animation.
Attachment: file attached to an e-mail message. For example you could attach a picture to send with your e-mail.
[مشاهدة الروابط متاحة فقط لأعضاء المنتدى .. ] is an e-mail utility that automatically replies to an e-mail message with a prewritten response.
Autostart This is when a program or application starts without you having to double click on the icon to start. For example, if you insert a CD into the CD drive on your computer it could be set to autostart. If it is it will automatically open the disc to view or start the program it holds. You can also plug your digital camera in and a program will appear to extract the photos from the camera. This means that the program was set to auto start if a camera was attached to the computer.
Broadband: This usually refers to a high speed internet connection like DSL or cable. To use this connection you would also need a broadband modem. Broadband is a far cry from the good old Dialup internet.
Bios: Basic input output system. You can access this when you start-up a computer. It will say on the screen “To enter setup press …..Key”. It lets you change whether the CD-ROM or hard drive boots first. There are also settings to over clock some computer systems.
Bit: (binary digit) this is the smallest unit of information on a machine and can hold only one of two values: 0 or 1. Consecutive bits can be combined to form larger units such as a byte (8 bits = 1 byte).
