Hardware refers to physical components like processors and memory, while software is non-physical programs and applications. Firmware is a combination of both. A microprocessor is an essential component of a microcomputer. Computers have strengths like speed and storage but weaknesses include cost and security risks. India's first supercomputer was PARAM 8000. Booting is the process of starting a computer and has two types: cold booting and warm booting. Capacitor and hard disk are hardware, while Internet Explorer is software and UNIX can be either. The main types of software are system software and application software. GIGO refers to garbage in, garbage out, meaning computers produce garbage outputs from garbage inputs.
