... when you can argue about the chronology of a book using the release dates of new computers. ... when you yell at your brother in a restaurant because he isn't listening to your lecture on female cat chromesomes. ... when you spend an entire month on the computer and are incapable of telling people exactly what it was you were doing (it was too random).

... when you've been on Yahoo and have found out that that Chromesome thing wouldn't be a 'geek', it would be a 'nerd'. . ... When you're sending emails to your non-computer-fanatic friends containing the pros and cons of the latest laptops, which are longer than your computer screen. ... when you cry because you think you've 'killed your headphones'. ... When you've set up an organization called ACT. the Association Against Cruelty to Technology.

... when your daily routine is 1) check emails 2) check for updates on favourite web sites 3) check forums 4) check wikiarticles on your favourite subjects 5) update your own web site 6) email everyone you know about the update 7) Research that new coding method 8) eat Lunch. ... When you have three active email adresses. ... When you're an active member of 5 different forums.
Yeah, sure you can be Co-Owner. Someone's got to run it if I die horribly in a nasty accident involving me, my forgetfulness, the ceiling which is 50cm above my head when I'm lying in bed, the strangely low railings on the bed and the hard floor!

... when reviving dead topics is your favourite passtime. ... when you do so when you should be doing work. ... when you insist said work will only take a short while as it involves computers. ... when you finish your art project and immediately think "right. I better save that now." ... when you know it's not technically 'geek'ish, but add to this topic "... when you spend an entire day trawling through TV menus in search of a good sci fi, find about three at the same time, record them and make your family members watch them instead of their favourite Soaps." anyway.

... When you're teaching your parents how to use their favourite programs. ... When you're spending a fortune on computer magazines because you want the free programs that come with them. ... When you're having a conversation with your friend even though she's sleeping. How? THE MIRACLE OF COMPUTERS!

...when you have lengthy conversations with your friend about your computer's mood swings and why you think it happens, employing psychobabble instead of technojargon as you have a tendency to personify technology. ...when that particular friend never talks to you again, except to recommend you a good therapist.

When you're on the computer for more hours a day then you sleep. When your biggest dream vacation is to visit a supercomputer. When your idol is Bill Gates, although you don't care about being rich.
