When I was studying in schools, there was no computers. My present age is 61 years. Now you can guess about my perod. It was half a century back. I didn't learn about computers from the school or college. I studied myself. But I have two months training from a private institute in DTP (Desk top publishing.Computers and the internet related aspects was very much interesting to me. So I learned myself depending the help pages. Now I am writing a response to this discussion in mylot.com using that knowledge.

i had a course at school beginning at the age of 10. So i had no chose :p .
But most i still learned at home. except for the programming in c that was again a small part of a course at college. (for programming psychology experiments on a pc)
i also learned myself the basics of dos and 'programming' .bat files, on the first computers i ever got in though with out of school. it were old pc's where windows couldn't run on.

I learn computer at school when I was 7 years old,
which is many years before.
Until now,
only 20% of my computer knowledge,
included internet knowledge learned from school.
I learn a lot by my own in home.
