Expanding my knowledge of computer and computer operations?

[timjshaw]

Any suggestions for books or a online class i could take to learn much more about computers other than the way i have been doing for a long time (internet research). i have been interested in computers most of my life and i cant ever seem to get enough info. id really like to know things other then benchmarks and specs for pc parts. id like to understand how they work and how they are constructed. thankyou so much for any help.

P.S. i am looking into college to go to but for now i am just looking for something to use to further my research.

MIT offers almost all of their entry-level CS lectures online, in video form, I'd strongly recommend looking into those.
