Hardware vs Software
Hardware is any piece of circuitry or component on your computer of a physical nature. This would include things like your monitor, motherboard, floppy disks and even the case itself is considered hardware.

Software refers to the programs that run on your computer. Programs are intangible and can not be held in your hand. Examples, of software would be Microsoft Windows, FrontPage, PC games, etc...etc...
