1. COMPUTER

A computer is a big electrified rock, which is designed to pass
voltages through various other devices (other rocks) and make alleged
sense.

2. DEVICES

A device is a special kind of rock attached to the main rock (the
computer). This rock provides the data that big rock uses.

3. DISKS

A disk is a spinning piece of rock, which is magnetically charged to
retain for a time the somewhat meaningful information to be garbled by
the main rock.

4. TERMINALS

A terminal is a rock that glows in the dark and (theoretically)
displays the somewhat meaningful information to be garbled by the main
rock.

And so forth...
