This guy brings a laptop to his school
and starts to upload his webpage
He looks at html codes
he looks like a nerd
and surfs a site like freewebspace.net while using the laptop AT SCHOOL


you guys aren't like that
are you?
 
when im in keyboarding class i find myself typing in the url to a site like this or a wrestling site but i delete it and go to a games or basketball site :)
 
Did the teacher say anything about this action? I would have gotten into deep trouble if I did that.
 
Whats so bad about that?

If thats what someone enjoys doing... let them do it. At least he's being productive.
 
I prolly would've gotten suspended if I tried to bring that to school... where does he hook up his laptop? Even if I brought a laptop to school, I still wouldn't be able to go online, 'cause there are no phoneline jacks.

He's surfing the net when he's supposed to be staring at the dull textbooks and figuring out what to add to 1 to make 2, so yes, it IS bad!
 
one guy brought his laptop to school, and was flaunting it around, and using the cellular modem to connect to the internet. one of the non nerds "accidentally" knocked it off the desk. it broke, but for some reson the nerd didnt cry or anything. he just picked up all the pieces. and took them to a used electronics shop. it turned out he stole the laptop from the school. he got suspended for awhile and all computer privleges revoked.

I could write a book of nerd stories i have so many.

why get in trouble? maybe if he was surfing porn sites, but not freewebspace.net

if he was using it to cheat on a test, then i'd say he'd be in deep trouble..
 
We are allowed to bring Laptops to school and each class room has a hub connected to a T3 that we can connect our laptops to. Most teachers prefer laptops over paper since we can save our notes and use them at the end of the year for the Mid-term. Face it, technology is changing. As for the comment of the "nerd", he's not a nerd, he's a regular teenager. It's the way of the future, kids having laptops. Matter of fact, there is a school located near my home that requires the use of a laptop. No laptop, no acceptance letter. They don't have textbooks or paper, it's all on a 3 1/2 disk.
 
nah

what I'm saying is
I would come to school
1) learn
2) chill with my friends


I don't spend my lunch time looking at html codes and making webpages for fun

maybe at home
but not at school
 
I used to spen my lunch time behind the schools computers to upload my webpages to yahoo. Gee, that was a long time ago(3months). Back then, I didn't had internet at home.
:):):)At school there are about 30 comps on a 56k modem :):):)
 
Most of the computers in my school are IBMs with Pentium 2 processors running Windows 98. We have one room with Macs using Mac OS 8.6 (I think) and we always have to use Virtual PC. Oh, and we're only on a T1.
 
There's a kid in my school who brings a laptop to school, but never really uses it, just carries it around like a breif case... pityfull

Our school has about 50 PCs using Win 95 on T1s; they are totally outdated and crash all the time. Also have about 20 new iMacs run on 56k connections.
 
You guys have it pretty good :)

Back when I was in school we had to use these great hulking masses running DOS. They only had monochrome monitors (green on black). Modems for a personal computer were a few years away yet. Everyone was pretty excited when they got a chance to use the Apple IIE's as they looked better.

That was around 1988 - we've come a long way huh? :)

Why in the world would any of your schools use 56K modems for individual computers to be connected to the internet? After paying for 20-30 phonelines, and an ISP account for every computer, the price would have to be ridiculous. With the price for T1's and T3's falling dramatically recently, that just strikes me as very odd. Especially when some of you say they already have Windows PC's hooked up to a network. Every imac ever made has come with a built-in ethernet port! Oh well, I will stop being nerdy now

It's probably an entire ethernet network connected to each other, but the access to the internet is 56k.
 
Oh, I remember the old computers of my old school... well, they were spankin' new then. They were these real sad IBM computers that runs on DOS I believe? They have it configed so that whenever you boot up, this proggy runs and it has something do to with education. Naturally. Really boring and useless IMO.
