you can add to your computer to make it more flexible, secure, or protect it -

Speakers |
Head Set |
Dial-up Modem |
 |
 |
 |
| Enhance your enjoyment with a nice set of
external speakers, maybe with an amplifier audio card and have sound sound! |
Use a head set when you need privacy or the
noise level drowns out those speakers... |
A dial up modem, in some areas this is the only
way you can connect to the internet. |
| |
|
|
|
USB Hub |
Joy Stick
|
Wireless Router/Firewall |
 |
 |
 |
| A ten port USB 2.0 powered hub, great for those
computers that only have a few ports. |
A joy stick or game controller for games, flying an aircraft
simulation with the arrow keys on the keyboard will cause you to crash. |
A little old but still works, this is a Linksys
router with a built in wireless access point. |
| |
|
|
|
Surge Protector |
USB Flash Drive |
Web Cam |
 |
 |
 |
| You can pay about 10 USD for a power strip but
this insurance will only cost you about 5 USD more. |
Pen or Flash drive, carry your IT Toolbox in
your pocket. |
Web cams are very convent, call and view the
person you are talking to. |
| |
|
|
|
Tape Drive |
A network switch |
|
 |
 |
|
| This tape drive can backup your data, however
there are less costly ways to do a backup. |
This is a hub or switch, it is not a cable /
DSL modem. This device will allow you to expand your network by adding more
connections. |
|
You really don't need any of
these for everyday computing, however they do add functionality to your
computer and if you need to go online to converse with co-workers, friends, of
family then the web cam would be very useful. Depending on your computing needs
the only one that is necessary would be the surge protector after all it is the
cheapest insurance you can buy.
A note about Computer Components Accessory Parts:
Some of these images are a little dated because they were bought and uploaded
in 2006, more new images coming soon...
Not much to say about these peripherals other than some are now available in the
USB 3.0 format, one thing that has caught my attention is the SSD that has a USB
port also.

Will a cheap
part last as
long

part?
