The interest in PCs and computer technology has spawned a host of courses in microcomputer technology (both traditional FE courses and more adult retraining). This title was written for the demands of such courses at advanced FE level, in particular the CG 7361. The emphasis is on practical aspects of hardware handling, and line diagrams and photographs help the reader to identify component parts. Suitable for structured study or interested enthusiasts, the theory and practice is covered in breadth, whilst workbook-type fill-in sections should benefit teachers when lesson-planning.
