- You get a tingle when you see a big sign saying 'Workbench'.. then remember you're in a DIY store, not an Amiga store. :o

When you show up to your A+ cerification course wearing an Amiga ballcap/T-shirt combo, with a PDA w/ PALMUAE and a thumbdrive with a complete WinUAE installation. (Plus, do all your homework in AmigaWriter, hence the WinUAE install.. Only thing that can print that without reformatting the whole thing manually)

When you can't disambiguate the X86/X64 hardware platform from a "Windows Pee Cee" and you think that a 68000 machine from 25 years ago still cuts the mustard as a main system for everything you need to do :)
