1. You keep accidentally typing unix commands at the DOS prompt.
2. You used to argue about Windows vs Macintosh; now you argue about
   Linux vs FreeBSD.
3. You no longer say "computer", you say "box".
4. You don't need to use pirated software anymore.
5. Calling /([^\+]).*\1/ a "regular expression" doesn't strike you as
   a contradiction.
6. You remember IP addresses more easily than phone numbers.
7. The X application you use most is xterm.
8. You spend two hours writing a script to do something you could have
   done manually in five minutes.
9. You named your cat TuX.
10. You can't remember why you used to hate vi.
