  • There's always more to be learned.
  • Goodness! I don't think I'll EVER learn everything about my computer! Even if I tried there are WAY too many things to fit into my head! I know the basics but all the other details...well, let's just say I let someone else handle those things. :â—‹Þ
  • I seriously doubt that I know all there is to know, but I can't remember the last time I learned something knew about my computer.
  • I agree with Avallach. A computer has millions of things to be learned. From destroying a virus from its roots to CMD command prompts. The computer cannot be learned. It takes years and years to gain SOME knowledge. So no. I do not know all there is to learn.
  • computer moron here-lol-didnt play with one till i was 48 and only have been at it for a couple of years--i have a long ways to go before i even get the basics down---good question-take two and enjoy the night
  • i have played around with them since i was a kid but i dont know everything about them. some of the stuff that they taught me in school i wish i could remember cause it was some pretty cool stuff but with all the new software out i cant remember everything
  • i doubt if anyone will ever knowEVERYTHING but i am sure there is'nt anything that cant be found out.
  • Still learning. For Christmas I got a 35mm slide scanner (and I'm learning to do that) and a turntable to capture the music of old LPs and burn it to CDs (and I'm learning to do that).
  • 2-3-2017 It's not so much that I'm still learning, it's more a case of stuff is still being invented faster than one person can keep up with it. For instance, people have gone bonkers about passwords, so netizens are inventing password managers. I tried one, Dashlane.com. After I got through the setup and started using it I noticed that the program can't comprehend that I have two email addresses. It keeps plugging in the #1 address, and when I change it to the #2 address, Dashlane wants to change the database to that one. Another problem was my debit card number. Any time I typed it, Dashlane stored it. The next time I went to a site, Dashlane blabbed everything it knew about me before I could stop it. So any site that has an invisible box designated for a card # gets it, automatically, instantly, and I am robbed, automatically, instantly. I deleted that sucker immediately. When I complained to customer service, they couldn't understand the part about "two email addresses". Just didn't know what I meant by that.
  • Still learning new things, and when I retire this XP Pro computer for its replacement (Win7 Pro), I'll mostly be starting from square one. "Oh bother" said Winnie The Pooh.

      After replacing your computer, how many weeks until you have to replace it again with an operating system that is still supported?
  • As long as there are "tweaks" there's no such thing as "knowing everything there is to know."
  • you are always at the tip of the iceberg
  • Most ppl only know about 10% of what it can do.
  • don't waste time reading about things that aren't relevant to you no one knows all there is to know about computers. I remember dos it was all but dead by the time i got my head around it.
  • Now that they DON'T ship manuals with operating systems (unlike the good old days), I don't know the ins and outs of the OS. The same is true for any relatively high-end program (office software, audio and video editors, etc.) USUALLY lacking a manual, I (therefore) lack the ability to attain relatively quick and complete understanding of the full capabilities of any program or OS.
