PCIiQ is a supposedly serious and high quality test that asks you questions about computers, software, and hardware. Then it determines your Iq in terms of Computer knowledge. It's actually the most interesting test I have ever taken, and I would suggest that anyone here interested and knowledgable in computers to take it. There are 3 sets of tests: The short 10 question one, the medium 25 question one, and the long 60 question one.
Some questions are:
A firewire is A/an:
What is a search engine?
Versions of Intel's Pentium 4 CPUs can be fitted into all of the following sockets except:
RAID is a/an:
Which would have the largest file size?
Test:

I took the MINI test (10 Ques) and got 80%
Good Luck!!!

are there any questions about DOS 3.3 on there?
and just exactly what happened to the first post i made saying this? is the system screening for the word DOS and refusing to accept posts with it in them?

Hey that's a pretty cool test :)
I took the short version and got 9/10.
Only thing is, they don't say which one you missed :(

what the heck? i took the full test and it still won't give me the wrong answers. says I have to take the full test. duh I did!
oh well - got 87% on the full test and 80% on the mini test
what the heck is that symbol anyway? :o
well that test is screwed up - said I had 20 blank answers, yet it said the test had ended.
oh well!
Well, guess what? This 65 yo great-grandmother just scored a 70 on that short test! There is no way I would try the med. or long one...too taxing on the brain! :D
This may not sound like a good score to you but with my lupie brain I would have been satisfied with a 69. :confused:
That was sorta fun even if it does show my lack of knowledge of this strange thing called a computer.

NO FAIR!!!!
That test was mostly hardware stuff!
I took the long test and got 53% right. :eek:
Howdy Dave, I have to admit...I guessed at a fair number of the short test! :D ROFLOL! I'm a lucky guesser.

Well I took the long test and got 70% and it said I had 6 blank answers. I know I answered all the questions, so I guess I'll go back and try again one of these days.
