Paul, <XT-keyboard test>: trying to change subject again? 1977 or 85 - it does not matter. You made a fool of yourself and have publicly proved that your computer expertise is at least THREE GENERATIONS OLD. As a prophet of advanced Intel technology, you must realize what does the three generations mean in electronic industry.

Now we see that what you "rule" is a 8088-XT computer with DOS 2.0.
(I am just wondering how did you manage to install an Internet browser on this dinosaur? It must be a challenge:-))
Therefore, please do not teach us about SEVENTH GENERATION COMPUTERS.

You voluntary and presumptuously have decided to take the "keyboard test" and failed. On a 100-point scale, I would give you 25 points. Given the complexity of topic, I can give you a credit for extra 25 points. However, as you may be aware from your own son's experience (if any), the minimum passing grade is usually at least 70. Anything below is considered as "learning disability" and require special treatment.

"By the way Ali - you seem to suggest that you are a programming whiz -" I would not consider myself as a top programmer, but it is apparent that my programming expertise does exceed yours immeasurably (I am assuming here that yours is not exactly zero:-). This makes things even worse for you because there are real programmers out here.

For now, do not complain about your grades, and better leave the class (AMD thread):-)
