The document outlines four categories of computers: microcomputers for home use (e.g., laptops, tablets), minicomputers for engineering and database management (e.g., Data General Nova), mainframe computers for large organizations (e.g., IBM System Z9), and supercomputers for specialized tasks like weather forecasting (e.g., Tianhe-1). Each category is associated with specific examples that illustrate their applications. This classification highlights the diverse functionalities and uses of computers across different sectors.
