desktop computer used at a

home and in business.

Minicomputers are mid-sized

computer used in universities,

research labs and small corporations.

A microcomputer is a computer

with a microprocessor as its CPU.

Minicomputers are faster than

microcomputers.

They are cheap, compact and can

be easily accommodated on a

study table.

They are expensive and larger than

microcomputer.

Microcomputer is a single-user

computer.

computer.

storage devices used with

microcomputers are tapes and

disks.

minicomputers use magnetic disks

or tapes.

or as fast as minicomputer
