Took the practice exam twice today...
Jun. 29th, 2004 04:14 pmFirst time, I got an 88%...second, I got a 94%...of course, the software rates that as a failure, but I'm pretty damn happy.
I keep reading more and more..it's the damned "2f8h" stuff that's getting me..rather, I should say, it's the I/O addresses that are killing me.
Now, I've finally gotten it into my head that Com 1 and 3 or IRQ 4, and Come 2 and 4 are IRQ 3...now if I can get and keep their I/O stuff seperate, I'll be fine..
So, in short, the learning continues, I'm still not where i want to be in order to take said test, but I'm getting there.
Now, on other fun news...I go to make my "Wand" tomorrow after work...a friend makes Props and such..and, I decided that for the Whose Line game "Storytime", that my pointer should be a wand...hence, making my own. Yeah, I could make a duplicate of Harry Potter's wand (Or Hermione's, or Ron's, or Neville's, Or Flitwick's), but decided that I want my own...and will customize my own. *heh* All sorts of fun.
