Introduction

This application will pose a Computer Geek related question each
time it is started.  If you install it in your Windows 95 startup
group, you will get a humorous question every time your PC 
starts.  There are several modes of operation so you can select 
the most appropriate for your needs.  The download version comes 
with 30 test questions.  

If you like this application, you may place an order with Nanoware 
to get a version that contains 220 questions.  Since you have 
admitted that either you or someone you know is a Computer Geek 
just by placing an order, we have several items that we ship along 
with your diskettes.  First and foremost is a certificate 
(suitable for framing or tacking to a cubicle wall) that 
states you are an official Computer Geek.  Secondly, 
you are entitled to have your name listed on the World Wide Web in 
Nanoware's Official Computer Geeks Hall Of Fame.  Simply fill out
the form, return and your name will be posted in our Computer 
Geeks Hall Of Fame within 2 weeks.  Third, we include a pocket 
protector that you can use to show the world you are 
a real Computer Geek.  All of the above is available for 
just $19.95 + $2.95 ($7.95 international) S&H.  Nanoware's Computer 
Geek Test makes a great gift for yourself or for that special Computer 
Geek in your life.

Installation

Give me a break, your supposed to be a Computer Geek.  Okay, 
here's a hint.  Unzip it if its zipped, then run setup. 

You can set up the application to run at startup by placing its icon 
in the startup folder. This is accomplished by right mouse 
clicking the task bar, select properties, then select Start Menu
programs, select Add then Browse.  Navigate to the directory that
you installed Geek, typically C:/Program Files/Geek, and select
Geek.exe. Finally, select the Startup directory.

If desired, you could also add a shortcut on the desktop by
right clicking the desktop and selecting the Add Shortcut.  
Navigate as before and select Geek.exe.

Of course, you should already know how to do the above.
