Summary "Today's computers come in all shapes and sizes, but not many people actually know how they're made. The journey from circuits and wires to a ready-to-use computer is a fascinating exploration of science and engineering. Readers get a look inside their laptops, desktops, and even their tablets as they're shown step-by-step how these electronic marvels are assembled. Readers will love knowing what goes on inside their own machines, and color photographs and simple instructions will show them how they can build their own computer!"-- Publisher description.
