2. Review of Classical Hardware
CPU
Fan
Ram
Batteries
The bar covering the CPU connects the fan to it, so that it can cool the processor as it heats up

4. CPU vs Quantum Processor
Data flows through the gates on a regular computer processor, gates such as and,or,xor
In a Quantum Computer, the data is on the chip meaning the quantum information is drawn in the chip.
The regular way it processes is opposite of a regular computer.
Pulses get sent to the data to manipulate it rather than data flowing through the circuit.
