.... illnesses, design cars, weave clothing, and fly jetliners. They mill steel, control rockets, advise farmers how and what crops to plant, bind books, and analyze population trends. Computers are even used to design and build faster and build faster computers. Computers can be classified as analog or digital. Both types process data, but in different ways. Analog computers are best suited to solving problems in which several quantities vary continuously over a period of time, making exact answers difficult or impossible to obtain. Digital computers are capable of providing exact answers to problems. The basic concept of a computer is very simple. A computer processes ste ....

.... a second, this is cool. It does what I want it to. If it makes a mistake, it's because i screwed it up. Not because it doesn't like me... Or feels threatened by me.. Or thinks I'm a smart ass... Or doesn't like teaching and shouldn't be here... Damn kid. All he does is play games. They're all alike. And then it happened... a door opened to a world... rushing through the phone line like heroin through an addict's veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetencies is sought... a board is found. "This is it... this is where I belong... "I know everyone here... even if I've never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again.. ....

.... industry estimates long distance fraud costs five hundred million perhaps up to a billion every year, the exact the exact figures are hard to be sure of but in North America alone phone fraud committed by computer hackers costs three, four maybe even up to five billion dollars every year. Making an unwitting company pay for long distance calls is the most popular form of phone fraud today. The first step is to gain access to a private automated branch exchange known as a "PABX" or "PBX". One of these can be found in any company with twenty or more employees. A "PABX" is a computer that manages the phone system including it's voice mail. Once inside a "PABX" a h ....

.... rely on electronics to communicate with each other faster and to store and quickly organize vast amounts of essential data. Electronics are improving at a blindingly fast rate. The newest technology from five years ago is literally obsolete today. Electronics are also being used for new purposes continuously. The Internet, or World Wide Web, is a relatively new concept of being “on-line”. This new project has opened a limitless number of doors for our society. Now anyone can use the Internet to communicate with anybody else in the world a lot faster and cheaper. Cellular phones have also appeared recently in the electronic world. These devices allow a person t ....

.... was designed with a thin piece of copper stuck into a small piece of wood. The copper strip had teeth lined up along one end that allowed the tool to cut a kerf in a small piece of wood. They later replaced the copper with bronze, and the bronze with iron. This new saw was effective, but was not very specialized. It would react differently under different conditions. Eventually more complex designs were discovered. These new designs allowed for the precision cutting of hardwood, softwood, with the grain, against the grain, and even raked out the unwanted sawdust. These saws differed in the layout of the teeth. Instead of the jawbone patter the teeth were placed in a ....

.... independent CAD system, there are a few aspects of operation which would be greatly improved. The first of the improvements would be the elimination of paper communication. The need to transfer large drawings using mylars would cease to be, thus helping provide a paper less environment. Another improvement as a result of CAD would be that of achieving much tighter tolerances in building new products. Using a CAD system, part designs could be received in an electronic format such as a math model. These models are currently in use by customers such as GM, BMW and Mercedes. The effect of having math models of all new products would enable a quicker turnaround in bot ....

.... dream up incredible uses for this technology including using it as a sort of drug. This became evident when, among other people, Timothy Leary became interested in VR. This has also worried some of the researchers who are trying to create very real applications for medical, space, physical, chemical, and entertainment uses among other things. In order to create this alternate reality, however, you need to find ways to create the illusion of reality with a piece of machinery known as the computer. This is done with several computer-user interfaces used to simulate the senses. Among these, are stereoscopic glasses to make the simulated world look real, a 3D auditory displa ....

.... It is only recently that the term hacker became associated with the computerized vandalism. Great description of Hackers: Bright young men of disheveled apperance,Often with sunken, glowing eyes.Seen sitting at computer consoles, their arms tense and waitingTo fire their fingers which are already posed to strike at the buttons and keys on which their attention seems to dice.They work until they nearly drop,twenty or thirty hours at a time if possible.They sleep on cots near the computer,but only a few hours-then back to the console, or printouts.Their crumpled clothes, their unwashed, unsheven faces, and uncombed hair, testify that they are oblivious to their bodi ....
