The Project
The computer history is very old . The first use of the word "computer" was recorded in 1613, referring to a person who carried out calculations, or computations, and the word continued to be used in that sense until the middle of the 20th century. The first electronic computers were developed in the mid-20th century ( 1940–1945 ) ( http://en.wikipedia.org ) , it was very big shape and it was a very hard to see it in every house . In every year the computer was changing the shape and the size and the programs ( http://www.technologyreview.com/ ) . From one year to another the people began to buy the computers and used them in the home . After some years , there was new software like printer , scanner , CD and DVD writer so when the computer became more effective and had new software the computer became very popular in every house .
Today the computer is all over the world . Now there are more than 1 billion and a half persons using the computer everyday ( http://www.computerhope.com ) . It helps the people to chat with their friends, family and to solve their home homework , searching in the internet and using the dictionary . Some people like to sit and read the news in the internet . Also some people use the computer for the media to edit the image or the video . Now , each company must have more than 1 computer because it contains all the information for the company .

These days there are many people who like to have a sports car because it is small and it is fast like Porsche , Bugatti , Ferrari and Nissan z350 . Of course there are many differences between the cars in the design or in the size and the power of each car . In this essay I will write about the differences and the similarities between the Bugatti and the Porsche 911 Turbo .
There are a few similarities between the Bugatti and the Porsche 911 Turbo . First similarity is that both of them are sport cars . Secondly , both of them can reach 195 mph . The last and the third similarity is that both of them are popular cars which the famous people buy .

On the other hand the Porsche weight is 3650 – 3750 lb . Secondly , the Bugatti can reach from 0 – 60 in 2.5 seconds but the Porsche can reach it in 3.6 seconds . The third difference , the Bugatti horse power is 1001 HP and in the Porsche 911 Turbo it is 480 HP ( http://Porsche.com) .
