The processor or specifically the CPU is the device that does all the processing of data in our computer. It is aptly called the brain of our computer. If you gauge the cars through their engines, our computers can be gauged through the CPUs. One type of CPU is the Pentium 4 which I think is the latest among the Pentium series manufactured by Intel Corp.

A central processing unit (CPU), or sometimes simply processor, is the component in a digital computer that interprets instructions and processes data contained in computer programs. CPUs provide the fundamental digital computer trait of programmability, and are one of the necessary components found in computers of any era, along with primary storage and input/output facilities.
