==Definition== For encyclopaedic purposes, ''{{SITENAME}}'' defines a "computer" as a [[Personal computer|Personal Computer]]. In essence all video game [[console]]s are computers, each capable of logical operations, but a Personal Computer differs because it offers a full Keyboard & Mouse setup, in addition to a few other customization aspects that most consoles do not offer. Similarly for [[arcade game]]s, [[arcade system board]]s are also technically computers and were precursors to the upgradable nature of modern PC systems, but they differ in the sense that they are dedicated game machines, whereas personal computers are general-purpose machines that can be used for practical as well as entertainment purposes.
