10/10 Class note

I have learned from my group member today about how computer works.  We all have a part to share with our group member and teach each other about their assigned hardware.  I like how we only have to focus one hardware for each group member, in that way we get into more depth of information of each hardware. And when we were in the group, we were able to teach each other with a decent idea on the hardware. 




We also had a chance to learn a little bit about Access.  It was my first time to use this database software, and I had heard about this software long time ago, but just never got a chance to learn it.  It seems like a great tool to assist us to sort all the information.
