hardware
     
         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 changable
        {software} or {data} components which it executes, stores, or
        carries.
     
        Computer hardware typically consists chiefly 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.
     
        See also {firmware}, {wetware}.
