Why is it that true random number generation is virtually impossible for current computers to achieve? I build and fix computer hardware as part of my living, but I still don’t understand this. Please explain?

Computers work off input and output. For any given input the output should be reproducible and predictable. The problem is that predictable and reproducible are sort of the opposite of random. This means its often time easier to use an unpredictable input and utilize that to give the the appearance of randomness.
