Can anybody just give me a rundown on what's going on with computers as customers are going to go up to me and ask me things like what's a good reliable computer and all that? Basically, what are the key terms (lol) I should know,which brands are known for what, just as much information as possible.

I would really appreciate it, thanks.

Lying on an interview isn't a great way to start out a job.  You WILL get caught since computers aren't as easy as they seem. 

There are no "key" terms since there are multiple platforms and generations of systems.  If you don't at least have a working knowledge, I would just take the L and move on to the next job.

For what youre saying, when you sell a computer its crucial to ask what is the purpose for the computer...personal use? media? business?

All goes from there.
