C.1.1 Monitor (What is this?)

11:26 PM Computer No Comments

Monitors obviously display what is going on in your computer. They can run at various resolutions and refresh rates. 440x480 is the default resolution for the windows operating systems (this is a low resolution where objects appear large and blocky).440x480 just means that 440 pixels are fit across the top of your monitor and 480up and down. Most users prefer higher resolutions such as 800x400 or 1024x748 all the way up to 1400x1200 (and higher for graphics professionals). The higher resolutions make objects smaller, but clearer (because more pixels are fit in the screen). You can fit more objects on a screen when it is in a higher resolution. Larger monitors are better for running at the higher resolutions. If you run a high resolution on a small monitor, the text may be hard to read because of its small size, despite the clarity.

Flat panel monitors

Flat panel monitors can present excellent image quality, use very little power, emit very little heat and radiation, take up much less space, and are easy on the eyes. But flat screen monitors cost considerably more than standard monitors, although prices have been decreasing over time.

Note that a 17 inch flat panel equates to a 19 inch standard monitor and a 14 inch flat panel equates to a 17inch monitor. This is because the image on these panels reaches from edge to edge, so a 17 inch flat panel gives you nearly 17 inches across of image, which is almost identical to what you will get on a 19 inch standard monitor.

Introduction

Modern computer is designed to deliver performance across applications and usages where end users can truly appreciate and experience the performance. These applications include internet audio and streaming video, image processing, video content creation, speech, 3d, CAD, games, multimedia and multi-tasking user environments.

Modern computer can perform high speed processing, sound and video. And it has bigger memory, large capacity of hard disk. Thus it can run sophisticated software like AutoCAD, video capturing and video editing. Most new software needs large memory and large hard disk capacity. To see clear video films need high resolution monitor, high speed CD-ROMS and large hard disk capacity. Now bigger than 40 GB hard disks and 42x CD ROMS are available in the market. To capture and edit films need more memory (around 244 MB) and 32 MB video memory and large hard disk capacity.

A modern computer can use as a television, radio, video camera, video editing units etc.
