![]() ![]() | Thought I would share this with you. This is a list of acronyms (3, 4 & 5) letters I have passed on to low level students at the start of an academic session, though yo might find some usweful, although some ar a bit out of date, and probably incomplete by today's standards. Would any of you mind for the benefit of my students if I used some of those you have posted here that are not on this list? AGP Accelerated Graphics Port ASP Active Server Page AVI Audio Video Interleave CCD Charge-Coupled Device CGI Common Gateway Interface CPU Central Processing Unit CRT Cathode Ray Tube DLL Dynamic Link Library DMA Direct Memory Access DVD Digital Versatile Disc.
