PiNs_Da_Smoka 0 Posted December 20, 2002 Ya wanna know how i know that i'm not geek? Its because i took this dag nabbin geek IQ test, and only got 39%. I'm just a wannabe geek. But i'm willing to bet there are plenty of people on this forum that might score pretty high. Well, i doubt it, but maybe someone will come close http://www.apcmag.com/apc/apcmag.nsf/1_pages/giq P.S. I would like to see the BIS staff take this test. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kegetys 2 Posted December 20, 2002 52% That test has some errors in it though, for example I answered 1000 to the kilobyte question, which _is_ the correct answer, the 1024 one is 'officially' named kibibyte by NIST as kilo means 1000. Also, the last MS-DOS version is not 6.22, Windows 9x run on top of MS-DOS 7.x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smogmorph 0 Posted December 20, 2002 I got 6%, which means I got the rank "Luddite" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
