Hardware consists of the physical devices that make up a computer. Common hardware devices used by JPMorgan Chase include keyboards, pointing devices, scanners, cameras, monitors, and printers. Some categories of computers used include personal digital assistants, tablet PCs, notebook computers, desktop computers, minicomputers, and mainframe computers. JPMorgan Chase uses Dell as its primary computer brand. JPMorgan Chase banks use a wide range of computers to carry out regular, day-to-day operations. For instance, mainframe computers are used to store data pertaining to client records, domestic operations and other critical processing information.

  1. For some reason the whole software running businesses have never made sense to me. Software is becoming more and more apart of society now days, so I figured it would be smart to understand the basics. This helped a ton and I hope to keep learning more about it and how it runs.
