In order to work with multimedia, a personal computer typically requires a more powerful microprocessor, increased memory and storage capabilities, a high quality monitor and a video accelerator, external loudspeakers or headphones and a sound card (or sound board) for improved sound generation, and a CD-ROM drive, as well as special software to utilize many of these devices. A multimedia computer may also use other devices, such as a microphone or keyboard for audio input and a videocassette recorder or camcorder for video input or output. Multimedia software is used for electronic publishing and electronic games and in employee training programs. The term multimedia is also used to describe home entertainment systems and other electronic products and services, particularly interactive ones, that combine text, sound, video, and the like.
