Re: Website feedback

CD Rives are used to read and write different CD or DVD Media. Common examples are
* DVD-ROM
* DVD-RAM
* CD-ROM
* CD-RAM
ROM is data that can only be Read and not changed where RAM data can be written to a disk. Once a DVD-RAM disk is "burned" it can then only be read. There are CD-RAM disks that can be written and re-written again these are called CD-rewritables.

While DVD-RAM is an actual standard, but it is not synonymous with rewritable DVDs. There's no such thing as CD-RAM. This definition needs to be rewritten entirely.

These devices convert data information into an audio signal. without a sound card on your system you cannot hear any audio playback.

All modern (last three years) motherboards come with onboard sound, which is by no means a sound card. A sound card is far from necessary for audio playback.
Overall, the definitions for computer parts are pretty poorly-written. Those two are the only ones that really need to be changed.
I can't really tell you much about the other areas of the site, because they really aren't my expertise. Overall, the site looks good and is fairly easy to navigate.
