Default computers: teach me.

I know nothing about computers other than how to whore on the internet. I don't know a goddamn thing about various parts, specs, what the shit people say actually means, etc. Give me the basics, and we'll work from there. h:



BTW, my roomie reformatted my hd today, which is why I bring it up... the computer is working much more nicely now
