Very biased test. I only scored 72, and I'm waaay geekier than that.Definitely biased--no way you're only two points geekier than me :) And no way we're both only in the 70s, either. We need to design a new test, and one which includes LotR geek questions :)

Rosie... is it a little odd if, while creating cds, I start channeling Dilandu and shouting "Burn! Burn! BURN!"? Um...yeah. Maybe more than a little.
On the other hand, I guess I can see that...
Apparently we're annoying PE. But you know...I'm an adult and it's a free country and I'll watch whatever the aitch e double hockey sticks I want, durn it!

woohoo! San Jacinto Day! ( Now, why don't the Texas public schools celebrate this day instead of 5 de Mayo?)
Today is also Aggie Muster. There are, I believe, three servicemen being remembered for service in Iraq this past year in addition to the rest of the Aggies who have passed on within the last year.

Maybe I should replace ME with Win 3.1. :)

Even Microsoft is trying to forget they ever released it. By now, they hate it more than anyone else does. I dunno...I may have them tied.
I've never had it on a system I owned, fortunately. And I've never worked anywhere where they ran it on company / college systems. I've still had wayyyy more experience with it than I'd prefer.
ME: It's one, big, obnoxious bug!

hehehehe... classic.
I feel the same way about RealPlayer. I would rather go without viewing a video clip than to install that satanspawn shlepware on my computer.

What browser do you use?
I use Mozilla, except for some of the java stuff I have to use IE for.
To: RosieCotton; Ramius
Hmmmm....wonder what would happen. Probably none of my stuff would run.
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Aw, c'mon...once in a great while couldn't hurt anything!

I'm using a version of Opera, which probably just needs to be updated.
Rose has the latest version of Mozilla, and the quiz worked fine for her!

Seems like Quicktime is just as evil as RealPlayer, too. Remember awhile back I was complaining that my system wouldn't play long video files without overheating and slowing down?
Removing Quicktime from startup fixed that.
