It's a fair brief introduction to fundamental PC hardware.

This course send you to wikipedia to do most/all of the learning yourself. The presenter clearly doesn't have a scripted dialogue and tends to ramble about obsolete tech, stumble over his words, and mention future topics ahead of time only to say dismiss that info. This course could use better in-video graphics, text, and a clearly delivered dialogue.

The content is undoubtedly rich, but a lot of the material comes from Wikipedia, which I could've found myself for free. Overall still extremely helpful.
