Computers are available in different shapes, sizes and weights, due to these different shapes and sizes they perform different sorts of jobs from one another.

They can also be classified in different ways. All the computers are designed by the qualified computer architectures that design these machines as their requirements.

A computer that is used in a home differs in size and shape from the computer being used in a hospital. Computers act as a server in large buildings, while the computer also differs in size and shape performing its job as a weather forecaster.

In most of the Hollywood's movies it is used for animation purposes. This kind of computer is also helpful for forecasting weather reports worldwide.

Mainframes

Another giant in computers after the super computer is Mainframe, which can also process millions of instruction per second and capable of accessing billions of data.

This computer is commonly used in big hospitals, air line reservations companies, and many other huge companies prefer mainframe because of its capability of retrieving data on a huge basis.

This is normally to expensive and out of reach from a salary-based person who wants a computer for his h ome.

Windows 7 can read backwards but XP can't see the future.

Answer by Rute
It’s really pretty easy. You just need to put both computers into the same Workgroup, restart, and then access the files you want. Go to Start > Settings > Control Panel > System. Check the Computer's name, you'll need to know each of these. Also on this screen, you should see the Domain name or Workgroup name. Make sure both computers have the same Workgroup name. Make a change and restart if needed. After the restart, to access the remote computer, go to Start > Run, type \computername and hit enter. You'll see the shared printer on the Win7 machine now, assuming you did already enable sharing for it.
