Barney T. Administrators Posted March 14, 2008 Administrators Share Posted March 14, 2008 70 for me.......... :laugh: I have to admit I guessed on a couple.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borbus Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 60... I guessed on the other four and got them all wrong... I knew Linux was released in 1991 but didn't know what time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 70. I guessed a few and got them right, but actually I'm genuinely surprised that I knew some of the more obscure answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyfrog Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Got 90, only missed the last one because I've never heard of either one of those computers. Also guessed at when it was first released and got lucky. Knew it was 1991, had no clue which month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beanboy89 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 80, but I looked up some of the stuff. :shiftyninja: :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C_Guy Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Never touched or seen Linux and I still got 2 right. I was sure Linux started because Linus couldn't "afford" Windows but since that wasn't an option I knew it had to be a Sun OS he couldn't afford because their prices were (are?) insane. I do remember briefly having OS/2 on our home computer when I was a kid... anyone remember why that died off so quick????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomZ Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 30, Guessed most of them. I've only been using linux for a few years though. I'm more likely to pass a quiz on the present/future of linux rather than the history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt4pack Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Got an 80 as I missed the last 2. The only one I really guessed on and got right was the date although I knew it was sometime in 91. Never heard of LinuxCare or those computers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiagosilva29 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Holy ****, 100. (I have to admit, I scored correctly in the last one because of the word WANG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kreuger Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Your score: 40 out of 100. I should've known a lot more as I had to do a write up on the history for school but some of them were rather obscure.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch00 Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Got a 70. All the ones I thought I knew, I did, and the ones I guessed, well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xithium Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 80 and I didn't cheat :D I'm quite proud of that. The questions I got wrong were the company which made the Unix Torvalds couldn't afford, and the release date of Linux 0.01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PL_ Veteran Posted March 20, 2008 Veteran Share Posted March 20, 2008 70/100. Why didn't they just do it out of 10? :huh: I do remember briefly having OS/2 on our home computer when I was a kid... anyone remember why that died off so quick????? I think Windows killed it off as being a better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
