For anyone who missed the computer revolution of the 1980s, allow me to recap some vital, geeky definitions and information. The desktop computer is a personal computer (PC, get it?) that fits on top of your rickety desk at home, unless your desk is too small, in which case its called a tabletop computer. Still with me? Good. Now, desktop computers can come in a range of shapes and sizes, from large vertical towers to small cases that fit behind the monitor to balloon animal desk mounts.
