The Five Mother Sauces

Equivalent to that of the five mother sauces that every chef knows by heart; (bechamel, veloute, tomato, hollandaise, & espagnole) are the five main components to a computer; (the motherboard, ram, the power supply, hard drive, and software programs).

The motherboard is the head of the operation and also considered to be the most important part of the computer. this very complex machine is also known as the Central Nervous System of computers. Motherboards include PCI’s AGP, North Bridge, Processor Socket, Memory, IDE, South Bridge, and BIOS.
RAM or random-access memory is a form of computer storage data that will temporarily save data onto your computer. I say temporarily because these files may be erased when you power-off your computer or of it accidentally turns itself off. RAM directly affects the speed that your computer runs at.
Hard Drive is a non-volatile storage device that stores digitally encoded data on rapidly rotating rigid platters with magnetic surfaces. In the restaurant business, we create a mother sauce using many different ingredients, and in the same respect, the hard drive is comprised of a platter, a spindle, a head, an actuator, an actuator axis, a power connector, a jumper block, and an IDE connector.
The power supply is the unit that allows for the "magic" of computers to happen. This input of energy is converted into a low-voltage DC power for the internal components of the computer to use. The input must be converted so that it does not fry your computer.
We have already covered software programs at length so I feel there is no need to discuss them again. Just be aware that they can be added to many computers to enhance a users experience, and make their "stupid slow machine" run to their advantage.
All of the parts that make up your standard computer are 100% necessary in order for this machine to operate correctly. There are many advantages from creating your "recipe" from scrape, such as the pride and know-how behind it, yet there are also advantages to purchasing pre-made ready-to serve, if you will, functions. May it be buying a computer or making a sauce, be sure to look into your options before you just start getting your hands dirty!
