What is a peripheral???
Rick Rogers - 26 May 2008 14:53 GMT
Hi,

Generally, it's any piece of hardware connected to a system, either wired or
wireless, that is not part of the main drive tower. Examples are the
keyboard, mouse, printer, USB attachments, etc.

In addition to being an "MVP wannabe" you're also the netcop for the
group, huh?

How do you define doing homework?

It's doing research. First you ask the question, get an answer, then verify
its correctness. Whether or not someone does there howework by asking the
question directly or research the newsgroup archives on google, they are
still getting the information from here. It's not the answer so much that is
learned but the process of completing the research. The actual answers are
not always as important as the process.

Besides, OP will still need to verify the answer's correctness, requiring
additional research, as any question here can illicit all sorts of
responses. So, simply asking a question in a highly opinionated, peer to
peer group may actually require more work on the asker's part if they are
hoping to get a good grade as the person responding may know even less than
the person asking the question.

Or I could just be full of sh**....<g>

Something you can get with relish at many open air food markets.
