Amusing thought of the day:
Actual devices are hardware.
The programs that run them are software.
The programs that run peripheral devices are firmware.
Of course, my brain is now wondering about such things as flaccidware, rigidware, limpware, solidware, squishyware, stiffware, and malleableware...
shut up, I just woke up.
