Today's Featured Computer Term:    Motherboard

The Motherboard is the main circuit board of a microcomputer. It contains the computer's basic circuitry and components and connectors for attaching additional boards.

Typically, the motherboard contains the CPU (Central Processing Unit - the brain), BIOS, memory, mass storage interfaces, serial and parallel ports, expansion slots, and all the controllers required to control standard peripheral devices, such as the display screen, keyboard, and disk drive. Collectively, all these chips that reside on the motherboard are known as the motherboard's chipset. The electronic interface between the motherboard and the smaller boards or cards in the expansion slots is called the bus.

On most PCs, it is possible to add memory chips directly to the motherboard. You may also be able to upgrade to a faster CP by replacing the CPU chip. To add additional core features, you may need to replace the motherboard entirely.

Today's Topic:   Print Preview

Many programs let you view how the printed version of your document will come out. You can see what a printed copy of your document will look like before you print it. This is especially useful if you're printing brief text on a page and want to make sure it's properly centered. With print preview, you can see what the finished document will look like without wasting time, money, paper, and ink on something you may want to change.

In Microsoft Word or WordPad, open the File menu, then click on Print Preview. The preview screen will show the whole page. In Microsoft Word, to read the text, click on the area where the text is you want to read. In WordPad, click the Zoom In button.

Click Close to resume working on the document.
