Searching for a tutorial on how it all works
 
I am interested in reading about how the computer works.
How it puts data in Memory on so on.
Do anyone have a specific suggestion, where to look?
Thanx in advance.

I recommend Computer Organization and Design by Patterson and Hennessy. It is a pretty indepth book on... well, the Organization and Design of computers:) I know it has been used in college architecture courses for years and years. Focus' on the MIPS architecture (because it is very simple) at first, and then talks about what is different on more modern architectures. My only warning... this book isn't exactly light reading.

I meant online :-)
 
I like to read books/tutorials online. Do you know any (good)?

I have the book: Structured Computer Organisation by Tanenbaum.

Thanks for the reply.
