It is not that astonishing. Today you normaly just don't need to know 
how to use the last BIT of your computer to temporarly store a pointer
on your process-table. And keep in mind that Companies just don't want 
users to know so much about computers because they not only want to 
sell the hard- or software, they also want to sell consulting and 
training and for that purpose you don't need millions of geeks, you 
only need a slightly smart student and a projector.

And we will propably be too happy that finally somebody is interested
in our knowledge. It is kind a bit like asking grandfather to tell you 
about 2nd world war.
