This class should be interesting, after not having any time to complete a lab assignment last class, this class we start with the labs we missed. Off we go...
Now to the lecture...
Hey, I just noticed my farm boy buddy doesn't have his hearing aid in tonight. I guess my horse stomping typing style was driving him crazy. Oh well.... woah there boy.
Pop, there goes our class's projector bulb. I saw that one coming from week one, the yellow warning light on the Epson projector has been flashing since then and it was only a matter of time before the bulb just gave up. Teacher is very surprised, even though when he starts the projector, it also puts up a warning text on the screen.
Dammit.... The tech guy in the media department was able to get the bulb to fire up, maybe for the rest of the class. There goes another sale, down the drain. I won't tell my boss I lost another one.
Funny, we are spending so much time on the damn electricity chapter, even though the A+ exam doesn't expect a computer technician to know everything about electricity. You only need surface knowledge.
Notes:
- Volts x Amps = Watts
- A power adapter is a rectifier
- A transformer steps down power for electronics to handle
- Conductors easily allow electricity flow
- Insulators resist the flow of electricity, like ceramic or glass.
- Semiconductors are between conductors and insulators.
