YMBAGI you stayed in Friday night to install Tiger
I have a feeling there are many, many geeks across the world staying in this weekend because of 10.4

You might be a geek if you, not just because you could but because it was a good idea, placed a random number inside a substring command.
sex_code = substr(‘MF’, rantbl(225465114, 0.51, 0.49), 1);

YMBAGI you try to answer as many “Chain Gang” posts as you can.
I’m getting to be pretty geeky lately! -
YMBAGI you just spent your sunday morning trying to install Mac OS X Tiger (unsupported) on a Beige G3, and ended up doing it by copying the install DVD contents to a partition and then installing from said partition, and found the whole experience absolutely thrilling!

Ooohh… I’ve been there, man.

YMBAG if… your underwear is falling apart, YET… the last 15 bucks in your bank account has already been allocated to the purchase of a USB keychain drive.

You buy (2) Belkin Wireless G USB Network Adapters (ver 4001), knowing that they don’t come with the necessary drivers to work on a Mac, and spend the next couple of days scouring the internet finding drivers that will make them work, just so your kids can get online from their own B&W G3’s.

Waste time making a gratuitous post to get to 500 to be a Mac Genius on the MacObserver boards!
(Oh no, it must be 501. Crap!)

Well, congrats! That only took you 8 years.

you also miss the old stars. I loved those stars. Hmmm…I know people who know people who could maybe get them back. Better yet, I know people who know people who could update them and clean them up.
