(​Web Browsers, The Web,and Your Computer)

Now that we have a good story, we can learn a bit about the  computer we will use to write our story and the web browser that connects our computer to the internet.  What exactly is a web browser?  Web browsers are installed software on your computer. A web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Edge, or Mozilla Firefox, Chrome, or Brave  is required to access the Internet. A web browser provides access to the entire internet. It retrieves data from other websites and displays it on your computer or mobile device. The information is transmitted using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol, which specifies how text, images, and video are transmitted over the Internet to our PC.

Originally, PC was an abbreviation for "Personal Computer." In this context, any computer designed for personal use by a person can be considered a PC or a personal computer. Computers used in the home or the office are considered personal computers. By this definition, a Mac computer is a PC. However, colloquial when refering to a PC, users are talking about a computer with a Windows or Unix-based systems.
