Optical Mouse
The mouse has a small, red light-emitting diode (LED) that bounces light off that surface onto a complimentary metaloxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensor
The CMOS sensor sends each image to a digital signal processor (DSP) for analysis The computer moves the cursor on the screen based on the coordinates received from the mouse. This happens hundreds of times each second, making the cursor appear to move very smoothly

What is Motherboard?
Primary and the most important component of the computer Multi-layered Central Printed Circuit Board inside the PC that contains and controls the components that are responsible for processing data Provides electrical connection by which the other components of the system communicate Copper circuit paths called traces carry signals and voltages across the motherboard

What is Motherboard?
Some layers carry data for input/output while other layers carry voltage and ground returns As far as its name is understood, the motherboard hosts some important parts such as BIOS and RAM etc. We can connect among devices It is sometimes alternatively known as the main board, baseboard, system board, Planar board or, the logic board

Disk Storage:
Holds permanent data and programs. Three major distinctions between disks and memory a) disks have more storage b) disks are durable c) disks are cheaper Common is magnetic disk (hard disk, floppy disk). Optical disk (CD-ROM).
