A funny article today on how to not be a n00b with your computer. It goes through ten different ways you can “look” like a computer 1337 person.

Here is the list, but the comments under the list are the real funny bread and butter of the article.

1. Deride everyone you just sucked up to in the local electronics store
2. Never ever buy novelty computer products
3. Only have one of four types of Desktop Background
4. Live your tortured life through MSN titles
5. Never use any screen resolution under 1280×960
6. Don’t use the services which come with your PC or ISP
7. Have complete confidence in your system.
8. Avoid embarrassment by not having to know when to use computing units
9. Don’t stick your tongue out when you’re browsing web sites
10. Finally the one key rule about being a master of home computing: Never play Minesweeper.
