Solid State

Solid state electronic devices are made up of solid components that do not move. Some examples include computer motherboards and integrated circuits. Devices that use only solid state parts, such as television sets, speakers, and digital watches, are often referred to as solid state products. Flash memory devices are solid state products, while hard drives are not. This is because hard drives use a spinning disk and moving drive head to read and write data, while flash memory uses electric charges to perform the same functions.

XBL

Perl

Practical extraction and report language. The programming language of choice for writing Web server applications, Perl is used for creating interactive forms and a slew of other CGI programs.
