So nice to meet you, Mitz,
I am a granny who LOVES computers-but I have found it difficult to find real information about them. So, I appreciated your quiz -I got 6 out of 10 . I would like to thank you so much for this wonderful site and your hard work to put it here.
Hugs of appreciation

I got 6 out of 10.
I think I got the easy questions right.
I don’t own a printer anymore so I didn’t know about duplex.

It was a bit bad I had the question about wifi security wrong. That is something important to know about.

Nice quiz though :)
