Summary: Computers are complex machines built upon very simple principles. They perform arithmetical operations millions of times over to transform digital information, moving at lightning speed, into usable human data.

A personal computer's job is to help a user create, manipulate, deliver, receive, or delete media content. This is a simple, sterile definition that sounds uninteresting on the surface. Nevertheless, these fundamental functions mimic human ability in some surprising ways. Therefore, the computer is increasingly becoming an engine of the imagination, a platform for the digital life.

The computer’s basic functionality is behind the growing demand for improved home computing capability. It has driven much of the computer industry to continually construct hardware and software systems that can meet and exceed the expectations of the computer user, whose wants are manifold and myriad.

In this free online computer training course, learn some of the basic skills of personal computing with the Microsoft Windows operating system, including how to use a computer keyboard, how to burn a CD, how to organize files, and how to find lost information. Watch these computer training videos for important beginner computer techniques.
