    This is wildly inaccurate. Too much emphasis on poor computing habits.


    According to the test I score a 9, my work area more closely resembles the 21-25


    My room looks like a bomb went off in it. My computers, however, are a case study in OCD.

    My OCD should be apparent considering that I put zeros in front of all the single digit numbers just so they would all line up evenly with the double digit numbers...

    The only one I kind of do is not unsubscribe to e-mail lists. I create filters to mark the almost daily stream of useless e-mail (I'm talking to you, The VMWare Team) as read.


    I can't stand having grease or dirt on my electronics. I take my keyboard apart monthly (when I'm waiting for something big to download, usually) to clean all the dirt and hair out. I vacuum out all the fans on my computer every couple of months too. Living with 4 cats is tough =P

    @closhedbb: "Save time, vacuum the cats."


    Or, if your bigger problem is bits of your lunch constantly tumbling all over the floor, save even more time by simply not feeding the cats--they'll then keep your floor all tidy for you. Quit thinking of them as boarders, start thinking of them as workers.

    You have no idea how right on this is. BTW I scored a 1, only because I do go out looking like Brian Lam sometimes.
