I've just read a few articles on techtales.com and someone there complained about useres refering to the actual computer as modem, harddrive.....he wrote they should call it CPU. For me (german) as for everyone I know the CPU is the processor not the whole computer with motherboard, ram, video card and stuff. As I've read that a few times, are these just people claiming to know about computers or is there some difference in the usage of "CPU"?
