[11-10-06 14:46]: Lucky you! I don't think any of my teachers new what a computer or a program was. I had a Texas Instruments Programmable Calculator TI-58C, with a wonderfull 500 program steps memory (shared with storage memory space, so you never really had that many steps), so I knew what a program was. But I couldn't show off, because none of my friends understood what I talked about so excitedly!
:^) my 'computer/calculator' was three pieces of bamboo with a plastic slideing window, and NO memory.....
My father had one of those and an abacus. A teacher of mine used a blank slide rule, he was PHI Beta Kappa. -- ___ _ _ _ ____ _ _ _ | | | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
