Computer hardwares and the concept of using them on a computer system

Computer hardware is part of your personal computer. Personal computer is made of many components. Parts of computer such as Windows OS, Microsoft Word even antivirus are software. Other parts of personal computer, what you can touch and see is computer hardware.

Every hardware is different because we all have different screens, monitor, speakers, system unit etc. Everything you see inside of your computer is computer hardware, start from HDD, memory and so on. Hardware includes all peripheral devices too, even cables and power supply.

This term came as a way to describe the box and all in it, showing something which is stable, while software represents something which can be changed.
