Well, I evangelize Linux any chance I get. I've used it as my main OS for close to a decade, and I would never go back to Windows as a main OS again. I only use Windows when I absolutely have to use IE to check something about the forum or to test out a piece of software that someone might want me to look at for them.

But on the geekiness front, does doing all my own computer upgrades (hard drives, configuring, memory, and internal peripherals) count? I also remember how to assign and force reassignment of com ports on modems......
Oh and I took the geek test. I have a vague memory of a version of that going around SW fandom a good while back. LOL Probably back when the GEnie service still existed. My score this time was 40.23669.......
Apparently doing ones own computer upgrades doesn't count for much because I do all mine as well, yet my score has barely changed from what it was in 2004 - and that's with me having a computer that never seems to have its cover on AND using Linux AND being a devoted DS and Buffy fan.
40.23669 has to be a forum high - at least among the people who were willing to share their results. I have NO idea how you were able to reach that level. You must walk around dressed as a Star Wars/Star Trek character 24/7 while also wearing a pair of glasses that are taped to hold together while also wearing a pocket protector filled with four color pens while also reading a comic book in one hand and playing a video game in the other while only speaking in Klingon.
