Do you have any experience in the Computers World? What is the difference between software and hardware?

Software is the program, hardware is the components of the physical machine.

Software programs like the bios, which hold the boot sequence can me contained within a hardware ROM (read only memory).

Iirc there's a book called 'PC's for Dummies', i'm not being rude to you. it sets out most of the acronyms you will come across in every day language.

I suppose one way of putting it is to say software is what you believe it can do, while hardware is what it will actually do .
