    LOL

    Central Programming Unit

    the C.P.U. (or 'motherboard' as it is more commonly known) is the main part of hardware you need to know about. It is a large circuit that is made up of tiny microscopic wires and connections that pass data to different parts of the computer.

    All computers have C.P.U.s

    The C.P.U. has many plugs and slots for various other pieces of computer hardware such as R.A.M., a chip, cards, FDD disk drives, A.G.P. cards etc...

    The C.P.U. looks quite complicated, but is in fact quite simple.

    A C.P.U.'s speed is measured by the amount of busses it has. A Bus is a tiny microscopic electronic component that carries computer data. The more busses a cpu has, the more data can be carried at once, the faster it is. Most of today's modern C.P.U.s have over 700 busses.

    Code:
    <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage Express 2.0">
    Looks real to me.

    Edit: Talking about DDR3 in 2007 killed it.

    1) if this was written today, none of the images would be so outdated
    2) is there even a purpose to DDR3? i thought ram had maxed out at around 4gb/stick, and ODR would be the next standard.

    If this is real, I really don't know to laugh and cry.

    Even though every part of the site seem to indicate that the author is serious, I sure hope that this is just a joke or something...

    Imagine a kid getting info off that site to do his/her school project on computers./..

    This has got to be the funniest:
    stealing IP addresses is illegal and I will not be explaining how to do it here.

    It kinda looks like a little kid ---
    [url]I got nothing/url]

    For clarity's sake, don't use "<ip address of hostname>" use the ACTUAL 32-bit numeric IP address of the machine.

    I was wondering whether it was supposed to be taken seriously until I got to the bit at the bottom about every hard drive having an IP address so the government can track you

    Sounds to me like a recent graduate of one the fine technical trade schools out there today.

    A few years ago when I was in the semi conductor business I needed to interview a for trainees for new field enginers to do service work on our euipment and I had a well know technical school send about 30 grads over, I asked each some very simple questions like explain ohms law, how do you calculate the power drop across a resitor etc..
    You would not believe some of the answers I got, one guy even gave me newtons law of gravity in place of ohms law.

    I shook my head in wonder at how a school could take someones money and turn them loose on the world thinking they knew what they were doing.

    Obviously (or... hopefully) this was like a school project done by an elementary schooler. Judy probably thought it was good enough to have created such a spiffy looking web site that they really didn't care for the information that was on there.

    I remember my very first web site that was hosted by Geocities... most useless information ever but I was simply proud of the fact that I did it in notepad by hand!

    No way... I'd never thought anyone would have had any experience or background in semicons at WHT.

    You sure they knew what kind of job they were being interviewed for?

    25 years of test floors and wafer fabs.

    Oh yeah they knew, it was a tech school for electronics, a very well known one that still advertises today.

    Wow. I couldn't stand 4 months of microelectronics/semicon concepts (although the actual integrated circuits fabrication looked rather interesting)... but 25 years?!

    Uhh... hopefully, it's not the same school I'm at right now.

    I agree, but some deserve more credit than others, who teach virtually nothing.

    That's insane. I can't believe that people working in that business wouldn't know what Ohm's law was.

    Aww... I made mine using the built-in WYSIWYG editor when I was 10. I wasn't "1337" enough to use Notepad.
