*a desktop computer is a ‘personal computer’ designed for regular use at a single location on or near a ‘desk’ (or ‘table’) due to its ‘size’ + ‘power’ requirements*
.
(the most common configuration has a…)
‘case’ that houses the ‘power supply’,
‘motherboard’ (a ‘printed circuit board’ with a ‘microprocesso’r as the ‘central processing unit’ (aka ‘CPU’),
‘memory’,
‘bus’,
and other ‘electronic components’),
‘disk storage’
(usually 1 or more ‘hard disk drives’ / ‘optical disc drives’)
(and in early models –> ‘floppy disk drives’)
a ‘keyboard’ + ‘mouse’
(for ‘input’)
and ‘computer monitor’ and ‘printer’ for ‘output’)
(the ‘case’ may be oriented ‘horizontally’ and placed atop a desk or ‘vertically’ and placed underneath or beside a ‘desk’)
.
(an ‘all-in-1 desktop computer’ typically combines the ‘case’ + ‘monitor’ in 1 unit)
