| Okay... so sometimes a newbie (n00b) doesn't even need to SPEAK to issue forth his supreme lack of skill! I'll skip the "White Out" on the screen as it's WAY overdone... 1. N00bs tend to get upset quickly... You can easily spot one who's pissed off at the CD-ROM drive that REFUSES to play his DVDs... 2. N00bs tend to not understand the blue screen of death... it confuses and frightens them. They usually issue a lot of body language at this point... mostly including looking around for someone to help them! 3.A n00b is the guy trying to "unwrap" the hard plastic container his 3.5 disc comes in... 4. A n00b is someone who hits "Shut Down"... is all proud they remembered... and walks away leaving the monitor and speakers on thinking they are controlled by the same magical "Shut Down" button. 5. They try touching the icons on the screen to make the computer work. 6. You can always spot a n00b... they get upset when they've formated a CD-R and nothing will write to it now. 7. A n00b is a person who will push the power button a 1000 times... but never make sure it's plugged in. 8. You can always spot a n00b... they're the ones trynig to put the paper in the wrong end of the printer. 9. You can always spot a n00b computer repair "expert" they're the ones pulling apart the hard-drive to fix "access errors" 10. You can always spot a n00b... they usually come to you with a confused expression... walk away in confidence... then come back with that same confused expression... | ||

| My friend Caitlin Williams has a 45x CD-ROM drive in her comp, and when she invited her friend DJ File over, he said, "Wow, you have a 45x CD drive, mine is only 12x.". She saw DJ's comp before, and she knew it's a 12x DVD drive, so she said, "I'll give you my 45x drive if you give me your 12x drive." ![]() | ||
