Impressive resume, makes me feel seriously unaccomplished. Even so, I will keep my video games, thank you.

I'm not making fun of the kid (well maibe a little) but my personal love for cognitive and development psychology makes me wonder how many friends he has... and if he really doesnt like video game something is actually broken lol...

"9-year-old systems engineer doesn't play PC games. In fact, the adolescent prodigy believes there isn't anything "serious" about playing computer games. Instead, gamers should go outside and mingle with friends."
LOL - 9-year-old systems engineer...
I'm sure she has lots of engineering 9 years to talk about engineering.
BTW I havent played a single player game in years, so I guess in a way I am mingling with friends... killing raid bosses... pwning face in fps games. Gaming Community...

I would place money on this kid revolutionizing parts of the computer world before he reaches twenty

 

[kelfen]

[Zoonie]

Is that Marko in the picture? Cause he looks alot like a she :S

 

[deuketc]

sounds like his parents are speaking for him... poor Marco "let the kid be a kid"

 

[acecombat]

4 to 10 hours on the PC a day?? Has someone watched to make sure she's not just playing WoW?

 

[RooD]

So... he most likely only knows computers, to be that you that would haveto be pretty much all he was taught

 

[killian101]

"Marko claims that he spends around four hours a day on the computer--sometimes it could be ten hours or more..." Now, who needs to go outside and have fun with friends.

 

[jrharbort]

Wow, makes even me look bad... >_<

I didn't start working with computers until I was 12 (I'm 21 now).
