I got 106... not bad, but not all that great.

[OKProber]

I got a 174. im a nerd.

"You are a digital ace, expert in both practice and theory, and you take full advantage of digital tools. Some might call you a nerd.

You are average to above average for the business world; buy a few gadgets and you might graduate a guru.

You could use a digital brush-up...and you may be taking some risks with your information privacy and security.

Are you sure you're really interested in the digital world?"

i got 77

it asked me this question that i had no idea what it ment and it took 10 points off my score

[L|qUiD]

184...

[TakimanPGT]

164....not too bad.

[Starcraft142003]

179 so pretty good.

[blackpgt1994]

148

I don't see how not having broadband should give you no points... not everyone lives in a money factory...

[Silver Sinsei]

122.

pretty crappy test. It asks you what you use. It should ask questions you have to know the answer to. Does it mean i have a smaller "digital iq" because i don't own a pda??????

[Aran]

I got a 181.

And it's not just your digital iq that's smaller for not having a PDA

[El Nacho]

176. I think the pda thing killed me. One of the few questions I didnt get points for. I wonder what the highest is.

EDIT: went back and took it again to see what the highest score was. Best i could do was 224.

I know what question pissed me off. the password question. You dont get points if you dont use friends/families names and birthdays as passwords. What kind of crap is that.

[TrancerTong]

I got a 205, but that test sucks.

A lot of it is platform dependant. "Do you have anti-virus software?" I don't need antivirus software, I have a Mac

"How do you combat spam?" I don't get spam, because I watch where I put my email address!

other stupid stuff like that, and like people have said, just because you can't afford wireless networking or a PDA or a laptop doesn't make you less electronically apt.

I got 200 but the PDA type of questions, I say NO because I dont have one and BAM points go down...BS lol

[Rayman]

108....im too poor to have all the digital gadgets like PDAs and crap....not to mention i really dont give a F about them

[maxxdamigz]

110, just into the top bracket, which only proves that you don't really need to know anything. I am tech literate, but I don't use a laptop, pda, and hardly a cell phone so I missed all those. I bet there are those out there with PDAs, email on their cell phones, and love web conferencing who score 140 but who couldn't put RAM into their own PCs.
