    Linux quiz - text how much you know

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/2547495.stm

    If NerdInside gets less than 7, then he's not the guy he makes himself out to be - I got 3, but then, I never professed to be anything but a Windows child.

    Unfortunately.

    You got 5 right!
    You're a demi geek. But you should spend more time slamming out code and less time roller-skating.

    I'm off out rollerskating, I don't want to be any more nerdish than demi geek.

    I actually guessed all of them except the penguin one.

    Got 5. All were (educated?) guesses. Also, probably wouldn't have gotten the Tux one hadn't it been for this thread

    More like 7 correct the first time.

    And what does being a computer science student have to do with this? Most of these questions are general Linux knowledge and/or computer history predating 1990.

    Heck if you really want to test yourself get the practice exam for the LPIC or even take the LPIC Level 1 which is something like $200 http://www.lpi.org/
