Imidlalo yekhompyutha
Ikhibhodi, imouse kunye nolonwabo kukudlala imidlalo yekhompyuter. Unokongeza ii-headphone kunye nezithethi ukuze ufumane isandi. Ungaya nokuqhuba iivili ukuba udlala imidlalo yeembaleki. Ufuna inguqulelo yamvanje yenkqubo yokusebenza yeWindows ukufaka imidlalo yekhompyuter kwikhompyuter yakho. Nangona kunjalo, abaphuhlisi bomdlalo bazama ukuqhuba imidlalo yekhompyuter nakwiinkqubo zokusebenza kweMac kunye neLinux. Beza neenguqulelo ezihambelana neenkqubo zeMac kunye neLinux. Ngaphambi kokufaka imidlalo yekhompyuter kwiPC yakho, kuya kufuneka uqiniseke ukuba ikhompyuter yakho izalisekisa iimfuno ezithile zokuqhuba imidlalo ngokufanelekileyo. Imemori, indawo yehard drive, isantya sonxibelelwano lwe-Intanethi, inkqubo yokusebenza, isantya se-CPU kunye nememori yekhadi levidiyo- zonke kufuneka zilungelelaniswe ngokufanelekileyo ukulungiselela ukufakwa ngokungenamagingxigingxi nokungabinangxaki kwimidlalo yekhompyuter.
Imidlalo yekhompyuter iyafumaneka kwiqonga lomdlalo wekhonsoli, njengeGamecube, iXbox kunye nePlayStation 2. Nangona kunjalo, owona mceli mngeni kwimidlalo yekhompyuter kukugcina isantya sentengiso eguqukayo yePC. Ii-CPU ezintsha kunye namakhadi emizobo eza yonke imihla. iinguqulelo zokuqala zemidlalo yekhompyuter zifuna ubuncinci beemfuno zekhompyuter. Kodwa iinguqulelo ezihlaziyiweyo zinokufuna iprosesa ekhawulezayo okanye ikhadi eliphuculiweyo lemizobo. Yiyo loo nto iiPC ezindala zingakwazi ukuqhuba imidlalo yekhompyuter yamva konke konke. Imidlalo yekhompyuter izama nzima ukukutshatisa necandelo lezixhobo zekhompyutha elihlala litshintsha.
Olunye ukongeza kwimidlalo yekhompyuter ziinkqubo zenethiwekhi zabadlali abaninzi kwi-intanethi okanye kwi-LAN. Ziye zaba yimfuneko kwimidlalo yokubaleka kunye neminye imidlalo efuna isicwangciso sexesha-lokwenyani. Ikhompyuter ifike indlela ende ukusuka kwixesha le-Spacewar ngo-1960, xa imidlalo yayisekwe kwisicatshulwa kuphela. Nangona kunjalo, ngokuziswa kwemouse, isicatshulwa sithathelwe indawo yimizobo. Abaphuhlisi bomdlalo wekhompyuter bahlala bezama ukufaka ezinye izinto ezintsha ukuze imidlalo ibenokuphucuka.
