Actually this is an interesting case that has been childishly and grossly (mis)handled by the concerned student.

The guy has his dreams in WEB designing and when forced by the curriculam to learn 8051 and its SFRs he is quite pissed off. Coming to think of it, why should a web designer know anything of 8051 and its core ? Here in India this faculty of IT is being pursued by many with a big dream of green bucks and the entire focus is on software - and when they get the degree in IT they are totally blind on engineering / hardware . And spend rest of thier lives searching for things to provide information on, which is the only thing they know...

Our friend must be one such guy - though I dont know which country is he from.

His aversion to things hardware is understandable but his approach to solve problems does leave a lot to be desired.
