Minicomputers

                  These computers are small general-purpose computers
                  having the capability to serve a number of users
                  simultaneously.

                     A server is also a computer that provides data and other services to other computers.
                     It is used in offices where many computers are connected to each other through it.



                  Mainframe Computers

                  These computers are  very  large,

                  fast and powerful computers. Some
                  mainframe computers are so big that
                  they require as much large space as
                  that of a room.
                  They are  used in big organisations
                  where large amount of data is used
                  such as banks.

                                                                     and  government  departments  to  do
