Windows proficiency test

I have a Windows "proficiency test" as part of a job interview. Looking at
the interview schedule, it appears to last around 20 minutes or so. If I've
been using either '98 or xp over the last twelve years or so, is there
anything I can do to prepare? I have a feeling this is a very rudimentary
test for someone who's used Windows for many years, but I like to be on the
safe side. Any sample tests available you know of? Thanks for any help on
this boring topic!

If you have been using Windows for 12 years then you have nothing to worry
about, as long as the test is a "using Windows" type of test. Not a
"troubleshooting Windows" test, or an "administering a Windows network"
test, or a "programming Windows" test.

Although I would imagine that after 12 years, you have done your share of
"troubleshooting Windows"! :-)

Why Bob? When it's such "common" knowledge around here that 99.9% of
Windows installs never have any problems at all! ;-)

That's true. You are in the .1% who can't figure out how it works.

Peace on you !
