        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

                                        Key combinations are too complicated. He probably right clicked and used the popup menu.

                                          Even so... I feel like I should have a 20 page resume rather than a 2 page after looking at those skills. After 21 years in the business if I listed every computer architecture as well as OS and might as well split languages to each. I used to list all my architectures when I was starting off, to have "something" to put on a resume, now I have to throw things off I don't want to admit to anymore... ;)
