48) When you hear on the news that there were 33 Chilean miners 2000 feet underground for 69 days, you say to yourself:
"Why didn't I think of that!?  I wonder how many Mhash they had down there?"

44. You check hardwarecanucks or Tomshardware every day for new Radeon hardware reviews.
45. You have vivid dreams about the price of bitcoin tanking or going to the moon.
46. Your firefox favorites bar is dominated by bitcoin-related links.
47. Your family has disowned you for heating up the house in the middle of July.

-All you want for your birthday is a few 1200W power supplies

-You critique non-reference card designs

-A power surge could defeat your retirement plan

-You'd rather see rig photos than female photos

-You meet a coal miner at a bar and try be his pal

-You've contemplated the legal risks of "unauthorized distributed computing"

-You put a donate address in your sig, just in case Santa Clause was an early adopter
One time a friend on the university said me "you spend a lot of time watching computer pr0n", and i was reading this  Sad

33. When the letters B, I, T, C, O, I, and N are worn off all your keyboards. And your phone.

You want to draw a power line from that road lamp

You are searching for a solution which can both isolate noise and increase ventilation

When you bid on every single Radeon 5850 on ebay and then realise you've already spent this months wages on 5850's.

When you've got two big piles of 5850 boxes, half empty and half waiting to go into the next rig.

When you no longer need heating for your house but infact need air conditioning.

When you go to the store and think about how much everything costs in bitcoins and how long it would take for you to 'earn' that chocolate / bag / shirt.

When the first thing you do in the morning is check the status of your miners and/or Mt. Gox

When you're visiting family/friends and you wonder how many free PCI-E slots they have...
...or, better yet, if they happen to be using an OpenCL-compatible video card!

When your computer sits "idle" (because you're mining) instead of gaming all day like before, and you can hang out with your wife more, she wonders who this person is and where'd he put her husband? Smiley
