17-24: Well, you can use Windows under supervision, but anything beyond that makes about as much sense to you as Nena's `99 Luftballoons'. You own a copy of Word for Windows for Dummies but you hide it in your top drawer and nod sagely whenever conversations feature phrases like `TCP/IP' or `Token Ring'.
25-32: Close, but no cigar. You try to be a geek but can't cut it. You are also wondering why you stayed up all night on August 23 last year just so you could be the first to get a copy of Windows 95 when it went on sale the next day, especially when you actually own a Macintosh.
33-40: You are a techno boffin to rival B$JD. Your knowledge of technology is such that you could laugh disparagingly at the Internet surfing techniques in `The Net'. The idea of going any length of time without your laptop is so nightmarish that you have to have a glass of brandy and a good lie down just thinking about it. Congratulations, you have truly earned the moniker of `Computer Whiz'!
