Boy, 8, becomes youngest IT professional

Yer see. You computer weenies make it sound sooo hard, when in reality an 8 year old can pass the exams


Steps back and waits for flack

But that 8 year old must only be doing exams and have no personality. whereas we are all.... actually I think you are right!

I'm not sure I'd class Ruth Lawrence as a failure?? She didn't just pass an O Level at 8-years-old, get in the newspaper and then become a drug addict or something. I think there probably are examples like that, but Ruth Lawrence isn't one of them.

Not a looker though is she.

I imagine a lot of IT Contractors will never encounter such a thing.

Who was that poncey kid who appeared on Wogan in the 80's? Blonde afro, looked like his face had melted a bit. He was supposed to be some sort of genius, but as far as I could tell, his genius extended to running an antiques business with his dad, which was later involved in some sort of fraud.
He went on to have a sex change, and Belle and Sebastian wrote a song "Lord Anthony" based loosely around him.
