    Isn't it illegal for them to just install winxp without giving/selling them an OEM version or soemthing? Just threaten them with that and they will be kissing your ass. ;)

    Is this a mistake (Alan Fowler)?

    7 a -8.0 = 1.0 x 2 to the power of 3 So the sign is negative The exponent part is 127+3 = 130 The fractional part of the mantissa is 0 giving us 1 1000 0011 00000000000000000000000 Shouldn't it equal to 1 1000 0010 00000000000000000000000 ...

    Centrino Notebooks

    Binary Division

    Sam, with the answer you gave, if u continued from it, would it then equal to something like this "1111.1001"? Thats what i keep getting but excel has "1111.1010...." Thanks

    Binary Division

    When we get divisions like these, do we give them an answer as a remainder or decimal? Could they specifically ask the way they want the answer?
