CPU is like our human brain, the most important part of a computer system. Everything you do with your computer is processed by the CPU and the faster it is, the faster you can get with your computer. That means the faster you can see a program like IE, Word appear and respond.

RAM is a temporage storage for your programs. The CPU gets information from RAM and then process it. The larger your RAM is, the more programs you can run simultaneously.

As to the hard drive, it's where all your programs and files are stored physically. The CPU cannot use data on it directly. Everything has to be loaded from the hard drive (or similar storage media) to RAM before the CPU can use it.

Hope the above can clarify a bit for you and others.
