Figure 2-11 PC with common peripherals

NOTE The computer in Figure 2-11 is technically a workstation, meaning

a computer you’d use at a desk. This is opposed to a server, a computer

designed to provide network-available programs or storage. We’ll talk about

servers when we reach networking, though they’re covered more in

CompTIA Network+ than in CompTIA A+.

Figure 2-12 shows the back of a PC’s system unit, where you’ll find the

many connection points called ports. Some ports connect to output devices; a

couple are exclusively used for input devices. Most (such as the universal

serial bus, or USB) handle either type of device.
