Variation G

The physical, touchable, material parts
of a computer or other system. The term is
used to distinguish these fixed parts of a
system from the more alterable software or data
components which it executes, stores, or carries.
Computer hardware typically consists mainly of
electronic devices (CPU, memory, display) with
some electromechanical parts (keyboard, printer,
disk drives, tape drives, loudspeakers) for input,
output, and storage, though completely non-electronic
(mechanical, electromechanical, hydraulic, biological)
computers have also been conceived of and built.
