| Hi Fiona, a quick definition of embedded computing is anything that has a computer in, but doesn't look like a computer. ie. computers that are not general purpose computers like a PC or laptop, but have a computer in them. This used to be a pretty good definition, but has become more blurred recently. A smartphone is pretty much a portable computer, which also has a radio modem in it. PCs running Windows are now often packaged up and made into embedded systems, like ATMs or ticket machines in car-parks.
I'm sorry I don't get the reference to homeopathy...
