Week 2 Posting - Hardware and Graphical Interfaces

This week focused on two main topics: The components of a desktop and the graphical user interface. I already have some prior knowledge about hardware components, like the CPU, RAM, storage devices, and motherboard. It was nice to review the material and gain a deeper look into how these components interact with each other. 


What was especially interesting to me this week was learning about the differences between graphical interfaces on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Even though they all serve the same basic purpose, each operating system presents a unique way of interacting with the computer. Of the different operating systems, I am most comfortable using Windows because I have the most experience navigating its user interface. In the future, I would like to learn more about Linux and interact with all the different kinds of distros it has to offer.

Week 1 Posting - Introduction

Hello everyone! My name is Noah Unverzagt, and I’m excited to start my journey into the world of information technology. I recently earned my Associate’s in Applied Science from Metro Community College and decided to continue my education at Bellevue University. My past experience with computer hardware and software includes building my own computer and serving as the family technician when technology doesn’t seem to be working properly. I look forward to learning more about how computer components work together and potentially earning the CompTIA A+ certification at the end of this course. I’m excited to share my learning experiences with everyone and get one step closer to working in the field of IT.
