programmer?), computer inventions, their inventors & trivia (like how
did the name Winchestor come up for hard drives), software (who wrote
Applewriter?) and much much more!!!

which will surely amaze their friends. Do you know what kind of a bug
the first computer bug was? (hint: it was alive and crawled into a
relay...) Try this program! There're lots of neat things in it and
you'll have fun! Guru level individuals looking for a challenge should
set the time limit to 10 seconds and see how many questions in a row
they can get correct.
