if you mean "computer system" in general then yes there are two main types ... desktop towers and laptop/netbook style cases. however you also have things such as mini towers, touchscreen all-in-one and other such anomalies.

all of them use the same type of hardware but some (laptops, netbooks, all in one) might use miniaturized components and specialized motherboards to fit everything.

no, asking a question is fine. however how can you expect an answer if you do not describe what you want to know?
