Hardware are the parts of your computer that you can see and touch. E.g.: CPU, monitor, keyboard, mouse, and any other thing you might use with your computer.\nSoftware is another word for computer programs. Computer programs include both the operating system (such as Windows), and other programs such as Word, Excel, Internet Explorer, Games, etc.

Quality of software depends on testing. Also you have to make sure that requirment of softaware is fullfilled. Actually when you develop s/w you have requiremen specs, you have to match with final product to determine quality of software.\nThank you,\nMiral Patel

Hard and soft refer to box/ "without" box. Soft pack tends to be a little longer. Also other's don't like the rigidness of a box. I prefer box becaseu if you carry them around in your pockets the don't break!

not sure i understand your question...but hard skills are things like programming, accounting, etc.  soft skills are things like customer service, motivating others, dependability.

Microsoft XP\nCopyrighted software\nWidely used\nYou have to buy it\nTakes lots of space in harddisk\nIs prone to many errors and virus attacks\n\n\nLinux Red Hat\nOpen end software\nNot very popular\nIt is free\nTakes less space in harddisk\nIt is more secure.

you should get basically the same protection from either one. the best antivirus is Norton. if you run both on the same machine one will compermise the other. check online for reviews of the software and see what is being said about it from the users.

Shareware is DEAD since mid-90...\nChoose GPL as very good license. Apache, php, perl - pure sucess !

DVD /CDROM and Hard disks are different media. The way they are designed and how they are made are different. The software which sets up the hardware is the driver. Since the hardware is different the programming model (i.e. list of instructions to setup the hardware ) also is different. \n\nFor example DVD has much more features than a regular hard drive. It has support for error correction which is superior\nThat is the reason the drivers are completely different.

Personally, I prefer Ubuntu. It's easy to use and very stable, for servers or for the desktop. I think there's even a version specific for servers, but I'm not sure on that.

Untrue.\n\nHardware is equipment, such as a physical item like a computer monitor, a motherboard, or a hard drive. A key understanding to hardware is that you can't update hardware - you can replace it, but you can't actually update a piece of hardware.\n\nSoftware means a program, written in code. You can't hold software - it's just data. Soft refers to the fact that it's not "set in stone" - you can update code easily.\n\nFirmware is somewhere in the middle. It generally is used to denote a piece of hardware that may be updated - an example is the computer's BIOS chip (stands for Basic Input/Output System) - the chip is hardware, but you can update settings on the chip through a software interface.

I believe you are asking for the difference between application software that you can purchase off the shelf (COTS) and custom/bespoke software that you need to engage a programmer to write. It is pretty similar to going to a shop and buying a readymade Shirt versus buying the cloth and engaging the tailor to take your measurements and stitch it.\n+ COTS is usually much cheaper than custom software.\n+ Since there are many other users of the s/w apart from yourself there is a commercial interest in keeping the s/w alive and supported.\n+ COTS s/w usually bunch together the most often used features into a single package with same use and feel.\n\n- COTS/Application software may not suit all your needs.\n- Since source-code is usually not available you cannot tweak the software to satisfy the quirks of your project.\n- Custom software is much more costly as you may be the only customer and the development cost cannot be spread across a wider audience, as is the case with COTS.

They have differnent compilers and few features that are different although the use the same code. Basically the interface and GUI systems alter and have few featyres the other doesn't. One is a GNU and the other is privately owned. Borland gurantees support and says they verify and or cert their plug-ins and patches. while Dev is developer based and you have to sork the plug-in from source codes last I used it. I liked Dev version, but when I started working for other companies, we only had Borland and few other flavors.
