Heh, I love it when you guess something right!

Me too, I was at home drinking coke before the exam had officially finished.

The gave us too long for them. 45mins - 1 hour would've been overly sufficient.

Same here actually.

I finished the exam within a total of 40 minutes, so they let us have a break, then we all finished the second paper in like 40 minutes, so we got to go early.

The system clock is non-physical :-p

We got to leave early. :) We started the second paper early also, so we left early with a combined time of 30 minutes.

Checked my book, it's the I/O controller.

Hmmm.

I was going to put "I/O" controller, but I just stuck with disk controller.

Anyway, I finished the exam like MEGA early (1 hour 30 minutes is being way too excessive with time), so I was being sad and trying to work out what the program on the last page did.

I couldn't.

I don't think I will. How is the I/O port between the hard disk and the control bus?
