[nfbcs] Computer Clock

Fri Feb 24 14:16:45 UTC 2012

typically it is F2, but it can be different for different machines--if you
have someone sigted around, the computer will tell you about 2 seconds
after you turn on your machine...but it flashes fairly quickly, so you have
to be ready--to see it and to hit the correct key command--but you have
nothing to lose but to hit the command--remember NO verbal feedback in the
Bios, but they are all key commands to move around. This is the brains of
the computer so don't change anything you should not or it will negatively
effect your machine

Computers are incredibly fast, accurate, and stupid: humans are incredibly

imagination.
--Albert Einstein

It's kind of fun to do the impossible.
