DESKTOP

In graphical user interface, a desktop is the

metaphor used to portray file system. Such a
desktop consists of pictures, called icons, that
show cabinets, files, folders, and various types
of documents (that is, letters, reports,
pictures). You can arrange the icons on the
electronic desktop just as you can arrange real
objects on a real desktop -- moving them
around, putting one on top of another,
reshuffling them, and throwing them away.
DESKTOP BACKGROUND
REMOTE DESKTOP

will actually allow you to see and Remote

Desktop, a function included with Windows
XP Professional, enables you to connect to
your computer across the Internet from
virtually any computer, Pocket PC, or
smartphore. Unlike a typical VPN connection
(which will give a remote PC access to the
company network) Remote Desktop control
your connected PC as though you were sitting
directly in front of.
INTERNET DESKTOP

A managed software service optimized for

Internet connectivity. It allows users to
access their files and desktop applications
through the Internet. Internet desktop is a
term often used to describe the trend of  
moving applications and software from the
computer desktop to Web sites that users
access online with their browser. Also called
online desktop or Web desktop.
DESKTOP COMPUTER

A computer designed to fit comfortably on top

of a desk, typically with the monitor sitting
on top of the computer. Desktop model
computers are broad and low, whereas tower
model computers are narrow and tall.
Because of their shape, desktop model
computers are generally limited to three
internal mass storage devices. Desktop
models designed to be very small are
sometimes referred to as slimline models.
VIRTUAL DESKTOP
A feature supported by some notebook computers
that enables them to display images on an external
monitor at a higher resolution than is supported by
the built-in flat-panel display. For example, most
flat-panel displays are limited to a maximum
resolution of 800x600.
The term also refers to a feature supported by
some video adapters that enables them to provide
a desktop larger than what's actually displayed.
Only part of the virtual desktop is displayed at any
one time, but you can see hidden areas by scrolling
the display. It's as if the display screen is a small
window overlaid upon a larger desktop.
DESKTOP PUBLISHING
Using a personal computer or workstation to produce high-
quality printed documents. A desktop publishing system
allows you to use different typefaces, specify various
margins and justifications, and embed illustrations and
graphs directly into the text. The most powerful desktop
publishing systems enable you to create illustrations,
while less powerful systems let you insert illustrations
created by other programs.
As word-processing programs become more and more
powerful, the line separating such programs from desktop
publishing systems is becoming blurred. In general,
though, desktop publishing applications give you more
control over typographical characteristics, such as
kerning, and provide more support for full-color output.
