Question of the Week
The Triumphant return of the question of the week!!!
I just got back from a summer away from computers. The withdrawal was terrible...
Anywho, onto bigger and better things:
Given the choice, would you rather study computer science in college today, or back in the old punch-card days?

Def now - I know a lil about modern computers but back then......hah I wouldn't have a clue nor the time to learn all that crud!!

Punch card must have been frustrating. Writing a program on 200 little cards walking down to the computing department finding only to find out when you run your program it doesn’t work because you missed a hole some were. Then on your way back you slip and fall now you card are all over the floor and out of order causing you to have a nervous break down.
