What a microsoft biased bull**** test.

Yeah, there were some questions in there that really don't apply to Macs and as a result of the lack of "Mac choices", my score was lowered.

Because of this, I'm afraid I am left with no choice but to give this quiz an mediocre rating.

This quiz:

I got a 76

On top of the questions being not applicable to Macs, there were way too many questions that were dependent on previous answers (for example, "Do you use a PDA?" followed by "Is your PDA integrated with your cell phone?" and of course, if you answered no to "Do you use the internet wirelessly?" a few questions ago, it's really not applicable).

Also, I didn't know what to say for "Have you installed the Google bar?" because my browser comes with the Google bar already installed. :)

Plus, the basis of the survey is just flawed. I'm less tech-savvy if I don't use a PDA? What if I know how to write in Graffiti but just don't need to use a PDA?

Anyway, my score was 101.

Well, maybe if there were more than like 12 mac users they'd make the test weighted more towards macs.

I got a 95... but I do agree that it is a biased test.

Jason1 12-02-2003 08:19 PM

Re: Test Your Digital IQ
 
Now that I think about it, I probably scored so low because im one of few people that has absolutley nothing to do with cell phones or PDA's...and a lot of the questions were based towards them...

Seconded.. My usage probably jumped my score 50 points.

Re: Test Your Digital IQ
 
Jeez, this test is biased. I chose no for the google bar and the setting of homepage to msn,yahoo,etc...and I got no points for it.

But I got a 159

I got a 137. Stupid PDA and cell phone questions. So just because I don't have a cell phone or PDA, I'm not tech savy? Sorry I don't have that kind of cash to throw around. :rolleyes: Well, 137 is still pretty good considering I had to answer no to all those PDA/cell phone ones.

Alex 12-03-2003 05:13 PM

Re: Test Your Digital IQ
 
I scored 141.

It's a really bad test, not only was it biased toward Microsoft and their products, but the questions were downright stupid. The fact that people don't own a PDA, use a cellphone for the internet or use wireless internet get a low score, which is simply moronic. Also, I don't use a firewall or a virus scanner because in the 10+ years I've used computers I've never had a virus or a need for a firewall, this lowers my score.

Where did he say that?

And what do you do Alex instead of using a firewall, I'm curious.

Hero2 12-03-2003 05:28 PM

Re: Test Your Digital IQ
 
No not +rep for alex. If you take the test you get + points for saying you have linux
srry should have specifed more

Alex 12-03-2003 05:31 PM

Re: Test Your Digital IQ
 
I don't use anything.

Some might call it stupid, but its worked fine for me so far. I've never been hacked or had any type of unwanted intrusion, so I never saw the need to go through the potential annoyance of setting up a firewall. Rest assured, if something bad was ever to happen, my outlook would probably change. Until then, I'm open for business!

Dyne 12-03-2003 06:48 PM

*cracks knuckles* Get ready for a Merry Christmas, then, Alex. :D

Naw, just kidding. And I see you're from Hamilton. I used to live there. :) Well, Oakville. Right beside.

It's still good to run a simple firewall to guard against those crackers.

I'll look into that, Bond.

And Dyne, you say you used to live in Oakville? Very cool. I picked up some used headphones off someone there back in October, it's a really nice place. As for Hamilton, well, it's a dump. To be honest, I don't live in Hamilton (anymore). I moved to Caledonia (just outside, near Cayuga) almost 15 years ago.

Quite a few close Canadians on GameTavern.

94, but some of the questions are gay, and you would have to be a serious nerd to know that ****.

Re: Test Your Digital IQ
 
40, and I'm quite glad I got that low. Why the hell would I want to visit/register to most of the sites or purchase a PDA/Cell Phone/Lap top? Possession does not equal Gadgetry IQ. But, whatever.

145,

Hmm I'm more of tech whiz than I thought. Um that question about how to dodge the RIAA? On an MSN website? I don't get that?

Re: Test Your Digital IQ
 
Ok I did this test: http://web.tickle.com/tests/uiq/?sid...z3&test=uiqogt
It seems like a pretty reliable test.

I got a 135 score. I have to admitt that my brother was helping me, but I don't think there were any question that I would have gotten wrong without his help.
PS you have to register before they reveal you the score. :(

I got a 127, and apparently im good with words, and would be a good speaker, and can easily make sense of complex verbal questions.......This sounds rigged or fake...

My IQ is 133:

"This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Visual Mathematician. This means you are gifted at spotting patterns — both in pictures and in numbers. These talents combined with your overall high intelligence make you good at understanding the big picture, which is why people trust your instincts and turn to you for direction — especially in the workplace. And that's just some of what we know about you from your test results."

interesting
