I bought a Pentium II 266 MHz with about 64 MB of RAM when I was in high school, back in 97. I graduated from high school in 99.

My first computer was a Vic20. But not in High School.
That was after I was 30. And the first I could afford.
I saw my first digital display in the Navy and learned
Boolean algebra to help with circuit boards (with
transistors!) (more war stores )

Well being that I graduated High School in the late 80s. I can say I had a c64 and possibly an xt.

This is a really good question, but what if, like me, University [was] only a mere dream. A zero score maybe?

I suspect you're not the only one. There's certainly no way to know. So much for a meaningful survey, hehehe.

For me 1 is low and 5 is high. I've never seen it done any other way, but I could be wrong.

You've never seen it, because you was not born in Europe (may be not whole Europe, I came from Czech Republic)
Here in school means 1 the best and 5 a kick to bottom part of body
World is so strange, isn't it? ;o)

BTW: The profile of David says he is born in Europe!
And now the big question arises: Does the UK belong to Europe?
A real great question.
BTW: I am from Germany and I had the same troubles.

I was born in Europe and I've never seen in where the 1 would be high and 5 low. Then again, I was born in Ireland and we have inherited most of these things from when we were under English rule. My girlfriend is from Germany and she says that over there it is generally the other way around so maybe mainland Europe is different.

how often do you look at CP article ratings? )
|
|
|
|

All wrong:
- seminars/camps:
the number you took
- high-school and universitiy:
the number of attempts you had before you finally gave up
- selfeducation :
the number of books you read (excluding dirty magazines)
- informal training:
the number of (job related) questions you ever asked your colleagues
The answer 5 of course stand for 5 and more -- it seems, some geeks here claim, they read lots of books(4 or 5); but I have my doubts.

CP articles are really a great source of information/knowledge. The crazy thing is that the quality of articles seems to be increasing (at least the C++ section that I am interested in) despite the fact that some of the best authors (W. Kempf, D. Lohmann, ...) are not writing for CP any more. On the other hand, forums contain nothing interesting these days.

Definitely. I had no formal education for this industry, either at High School or College, everything was and still is self taught and surrounding myself with other people having knowledge to share.
