                  How do you think the architecture was named? I learned mips asm back in college. Picked over x86 since there weren't any mips boxes with c++ compilers available to facilitate cheating with in the labs.

                    What - it's the size of your resume that counts? Wow, I'm in luck - an unexpurgated version of mine runs to 7 pages:-D

                            Whern I was in first year at uni I failed Engineering Management, I wasn't too woried since it was a minor optional subject however my dad bought me every book on the reading list. I put them under my bed and forgot about them, but then got a special pass (over 70%) in the re-sit - I must have learnt by osmosis!

                              That is a great idea. Maybe once every year people can vote on things like "The most useless article" or "most complex article". That could be fun.

                                I also noticed that one of is skills is putting "Redundant Arrays on Inexpensive Disks" Gosh! With that skill we could have infinite storage on a 3.5" platter for very little cost. I'm sure he really means a "Redundant Array [singular] of Inexpensive Disks

                                          I am starting to get the feeling that the kid just bought a book (that he didn't read) on each of those topics

                                          Don't kid yourself. He (allegedly :-D) downloaded an illegal copy of an ebook, then did a copy/paste. That way zero knowledge was trandferred from the book to his brain. :-D
