Am I a geek?

10. I've used Thunderbird for years, but I am getting sick of it. I might change to Kmail. GIMP is OK, but I must admit that I'd prefer Photoshop if I could afford it. Score zero there.
9. I agree with you there. Score still zero.
8. No boyfriend. I prefer girls, but am not attached at present. But social life? Not since I moved to this godforsaken place. Score one against me.
7. No worship here. Still only one point against me. Those folks do have some interesting things to say sometimes though.
6. I'd rather hike or do just about anything than troubleshoot a bad install.
5. Agreed. While Linux has made great strides, it is not ready for the average grandmother yet.
4. Unfortunately, I know most of those. Score one against me. Two points on the geek scale.
3. I used to work with Unix systems that had no GUI, but I would not consider myself king of the command line. Score 1/2 point. Total, 2.5 points.
2. I used to like playing with a computer's and an OS's internals, but now computers are just a tool for me. When I get out of here, I will probably be on the computer a lot less than I am now.
1. I've only lived in a basement once, and it was in a house that *I* was renting.

Total score, 2.5 points. I guess that I'm mildly a geek, but not an "Über-Geek." Thank God.
