Software is basicaly information that is written onto some kind of medium such as a disk or tape. When you go to the video store and rent a video what you are really getting is software written onto a disk. This software can be read by hardware e.g. your DVD player. This is the same with a computer, software comes on a disk and read by the hardware in your computer.
Software is most comonly in the form of programs that are to be written onto the computer to help us complete specific tasks. Software is normally something like a work processor, database, Virus protection or Media related device.
Keep an eye out for the next post that will give you info on how to install these programs.
