Computer Science = Acronyms.

Tomorrow is my computer science final. As I was studying, I started compiling the acronyms I came across in my notes. There are quite a few it turns out. Here is a nice list of MOST of the acronyms I have to know for my final. They are all common computer acronyms, how many of these do you actually know the meaning of (without cheating)?

- CRT

- CPU
- PC
- ROM
- RAM
- GUI
- DNS
- TCP/IP
- WAN
- LAN
- ISP
- DHCP
- URL
- HTTP
- HTML

- ADC
- DAC
- GIF
- MP3
