After we went over the assignment in Excel, you did some extra little things. The one that I was wondering about was the RAND. What does that stand for? Does it really just mean like Random? If so how does a computer pick random numbers, it seems like a rather strange application to have in Excel.

Artificial Intelligence is a very interesting subject but your slides mentioned that it is very far off still from being perfected. I agree with this statement but do you think we will ever reach an age that humanoid robots live and work in our houses? Or is that just things in movies?

You mentioned again in this class about the Microsoft Tuesday fix day thing... Why is it Tuesday? Is there an actual reason behind this date? Does any other computer software companies have this sort of day?
Thanks,
Courtney

Why is our speed so low compared to other country's internet speed? Is it because we have more people on the internet in the U.S.? Also I find it really strange the words like sniffers in IT speak, who comes up with these odd words? Is it like coined from a group or does someone discover it and name it?

Thanks,
Courtney

This was the day of our exam. I was very pleased with how I did but I had a question. I thought a cookie was a track file put on your hard drive, does a text file put on your hard drive track you? Also what does bandwidth measure? I know it doesn't measure packets but I was wondering what it meant.
Thank you,
Courtney
