I do not think that a computer component should be mentioned in this contex -- especially the two examples given. Each seems to fit into the category of subsystems.

Although, I see that I am in conflict with the American Heritage Dictionary: a machine or invention -- system.

In computing, "device" is a specific term for most OSes. We need something on this. -- Tarquin 15:18, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC) l

Machines vs devices

Maybe the table in the machine article should be moved here, because many of the items listed there are devices. --kop 04:47, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Scheme

Does scheme really need to be in here? It only links to another disambig page. I don't think there's an article about the word scheme as it is used here. It would probably be in wiktionary. DaffyBridge (talk) 20:43, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This article

I am of the opinion that this word/article is too broad to merit a wikipedia entry. Just a thought, not a huge deal. Respectfully, WikiEnthusiastNumberTwenty-Two (talk) 19:52, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
