Internal Feedback Round 3B from Google Poll 05.12-08.12

Thoughts

• It starts well, but lost it midway
• I did not understand the aim of the article.
• The illustration is not so compatible
• Too much text
• Please revise where to use present/past.
• The description of software as "the instruction manual" simplifies the concept but might leave out key aspects like the difference between system and application software.

Ideas

• Hardware wont perform better after a nap... maybe it would be nice to mention why more computing power is needed as the years go on...

A general comment:

Just because something is listed in the feedback, does not mean you have to implement it.
This list is simply a collection of everything commented in the google poll.
I tried to structure the comments and merge similar ones and count how often this point was mentioned.
If a comment says "I think", this is not me (Carina), but someone who commented on the poll.
