Input and Output
In order to get meaningful information from a computer, it is necessary to first put data or instructions into the system so that they can be processed. If you were to ask most people to discuss input devices, they would talk about the keyboard and the mouse. Although these are definitely the most common input devices, many more input devices are available.
Research input devices on the Web. Focusing your search on alternate input devices should yield many interesting results. Create a table that lists the names of at least five devices (that are not discussed in the chapter), a brief summary of how the device works, any special functions, and an estimated price if available.
