    How about when your first computer was a Compaq PortableII, which is so, so very far from portable.

    You buy a phone based on the fact it has MSN and runs winCE apps..

    on any given day you have more computing power on your person than russia..

    you merit the film "Antitrust" because they always use linux, instead of macs like pretty much every other film ever..

    your watch holds more phone numbers than your mate's phone can..

    your life is usually dictated by the callender in outlook..

    When no matter what you want to do, you first step is your computer.
    You think having an interface to google in your brain would be a good thing.
    You've spent more on your computer(s) than you have on your car.
    You use a non-mp3 or CDDA music format.
    You no longer listen to traditional radio.
    Your calculator has more games on it than most computers.
    Parts of you computer are on the other side of your room.
    You LAN.
    You bring more than one computer to LANs.
    LANing is the most social thing you do irl.
    You have said irl irl.
    You think of pressing 3 to pull out a knife when you're in a rush.
    You know that it's actually faster to run with the bomb.
    You have more than 80GB of hard drive space, and less than 1GB free.
