Ten ways to spot a computer expert

Ten Ways to Spot a Computer Expert

1 Does he talk a lot about 'hardware' without being
able to tell the difference between a gasket and
a hexagonal lug nut?

2 Does he often use the word 'batch' while failing
to follow it with the phrase 'of cookies'?

3 Does he claim to know several 'languages', none
of which are taught by the Berlitz School?

4 Does he often use the expression 'Garbage In -
Garbage Out', even when he's not eating at
the cafeteria?

5 When playing cards, does he turn pale and shudder
each time someone says 'shuffle the deck'?

6 A. Does he print a lot using capital letters?

B. Does he spell funny, taking words like 'CAT'
and 'SQUARE ROOT' and making them into 'KAT'
and 'SQRT'?

7 When asked to name his favorite program, does he
choose the Parking Lot program instead of Happy Days?

8 While making Christmas wreaths out of computer cards,
does he stop to read what they say?

9 If you tell him you've raptured a disk, does he ask
what was stored on it?

10 Does he say 'LINE' or 'QUEUE'? Whereas most people
say 'LINE', an expert will say 'QUEUE', you can
take this as a cue that computers are his line.
