see that just figures, PC people get together and don't have to throw MACs around because they already won the, "who has the more capable system aspect". Sounds to me like they're just frustrated cause they use glorified televisions and have no technical knowledge of their systems. Don't forget to clear that P-RAM!
one of my teachers in high school was and still is the smartest person i've met to include all the things that this man can do would take to long, but some of the highlights that come to mind are;
Photographic memory (actually remembered a paper that a student's sister wrote 5 years earlier, pulled it out and gave him an F on the spot)
Ambidexterity: he could actually start a sentence with both hands at opposite ends and make them meet in the middle (perfectly legibily (better than i could do with my dominant))
Refused to go on Jeopardy as it would be unfair to the other contestants, i know that sounds rediculous but you'd have to meet the guy
Slept 3 hours a night and read a novel a day!
The man new EVERYTHING! (like the atomic weight of Cobalt, not like he ever need it though)
And to top it off he taught the most exciting science fiction class on the planet with books like Farenheight 451. more importantly than that he taught life, from the eyes of someone who could comprehend more than most he added flair to everything
