While I was looking for content to practice my writing, I found that computer hardware is often difficult for beginners to get into because of the jargon, and assumption that everyone who is buying the part already knows what it is. It makes me wonder if this is one of the reasons why building your own computer seems so unapproachable to get into for many people.
My motherboard in particular has a product page that I think could use some editing.
As you can see, the amount of jargon that fills this page seems almost endless. Here’s my edit.
