Here are the answers they gave.
Question 1: The original IBM PC had two identical connectors (in addition to others) on the back panel. One was the keyboard connector. What was the other one? The correct answer is Cassette Tape IO. The original PC (model 5150) was the only model that had this connector. The only jumper on the motherboard was used to configure this connector for line-level or MIC-level input. Question 2: IBM DOS 1.0 had two utilities that later integrated directly into the functionality of DOS. What were they? The correct answer is DATE.COM and TIME.COM. DATE.COM and TIME.COM were replaced in DOS 1.1 by the internal DATE and TIME commands. REN, COPY and DEL were always internal commands. Question 3: DOS 2.0 introduced an important concept to PCs. What was it? The correct answer is Subdirectories. The PC-XT gave us expanded storage using a 10-meg hard disk. To make use of all that space, a new version of DOS (2.0) was developed to take advantage of subdirectories. Question 4: Name the cheap, simple way one could upgrade the original PC's and clones to get more speed. The correct answer is V20 & V-20. The upgrade consisted of a NEC V20 chip which replaced the original 8088 chip. On a stock IBM PC, this yielded 70 percent more speed. (If you remember the Norton SI.EXE utility, the original PC scored a 1.0 on the benchmark. A PC with the NEC V20 chip scored a 1.7.) Question 5: What type of hard disk interface was used in the original PC-XT? The correct answer is ST-506. The had drive controller was a full-size card (13 inches long!) and took up an 8-bit slot right next to the separate floppy controller card. (Yes, the floppy drive controller was a separate card!) Question 6: How many slots were in the original IBM PC? The correct answer is 5. The original PC had 5 slots. One was used by the floppy controller and a second was used by the display adapter. The PC-XT was enhanced to include 8 slots. Question 7: The next generation after the PC and XT was the IBM PC-AT. This computer sported an 80286 processor, 20 meg hard disk (later increased to 30 megs), High density 5.25' floppy drives, and an expanded system bus (16 bit cards!). What was the clock speed of the original configuration of this system? The correct answer is 6 MHZ. Later AT's were boosted to 8 MHZ and a 30 meg hard disk. Some people discovered that the clock crystal could be swapped to a higher speed. (an early form of overclocking) Question 8: What was the first personal computer from IBM to include a 3.5' floppy drive? The correct answer is PS2 Model 30 and Model 50. The Model 30 used the ISA bus and had a 720K floppy drive, the Model 50 used the MCA bus and had a 1.44M floppy drive. Question 9: Why would one change the interleave on their hard drive? The correct answer is To increase speed. Due to slow interfaces, most hard drives required multiple revolutions of the disk to read an entire track of data. Manufacturers were usually very conservative by setting the interleave high. Utilities like SpinRite would test your drive and controller combination to determine the best interleave, and change it accordingly. Question 10: Microsoft Windows version 1.0 required what processor as part of its minimum system requirements? The correct answer is 8088. The original version of Windows was release on 11-20-85 with a suggested retail price of {$99.} Question 11: How many banks of DIP switches were on the original PC motherboard? The correct answer is 2. The PC had two banks of switches. The PC-XT had one bank. Question 12: What was the command used to start the text editor included in DOS 1.x and 2.x? The correct answer is EDLIN. Edlin was a kludgy utility that had a lot of arcane commands. Question 13: What processor was used in the IBM PC-Jr? The correct answer is 8088. The 'Jr was nicknamed the Peanut. Question 14: Which is NOT a grapics card standard from the IBM personal computer line? The correct answer is AGP. PGA stood for Professional Graphics Adapter (IBM didn't sell many of these). MCGA was a subset of VGA introduced on the low-end PS2's. Question 15: What was the name of the first laptop from IBM? The correct answer is Convertable. |

You did great! When I took both quizzes, I did so bad, I won't tell my score. :D
I sent you a pm about the points. I tried to give them to you via the store last night but that isn't working. I asked Danrak to add them to your, Pseudocyber and Fox' totals. He'll give them to you guys. I think I will not post the answers to the questions missed on the next one so someone can answer them if they like. I am working on a new quiz now, it will be on Star Trek movies. ;) |
