Alright class, settle down now, let’s talk about something crucial today – hardware! Now, you've read the dictionary definition, which is pretty clear, isn’t it? Let’s break it down with a little rhyme to help us remember: “ Hardware’s the stuff that makes things work and gleam, From hammers and nails to a digital dream. ” Essentially, "hardware" refers to all the physical parts of something. It's not software – that's the instructions! Think of it like this: Fixtures & Tools: Like a wrench for tightening bolts, or a screwdriver bright and bold. Equipment: A drill spinning fast, a saw with a cutting blast! Devices: A keyboard clicking too, a screen that shows you what's new. And just like when you go to the "hardware store," where they sell all these tools for building and fixing things - those are also examples of hardware. It’s about the things you can touch , the physical components making it all come alive. Does that make sense? Any questions before we move on?
