Top 5 signs you're a spoiled brat:

1. Your parents buy you a car, and spend more than $500.
2. Your parents buy you a new computer, when your "old one" is less than three years old, or the computer costs more than a return ticket to Tahiti.
3. You didn't assemble your Ikea bedroom furniture, and it was purchased on or after your 12th birthday.
4. You buy your family birthday (or Christmas, etc.) gifts with money your parents gave you, and you are no longer in junior high.
5. If you were trapped in a car on a family vacation without an MP3 player, your camera phone, a game system, new magazines, or a DVD or VHS system, you'd rather bitch at your parents for hours than go to a library and bring a book.

Yes, the past Mark Weiser from Xerox PARC..
I just find it so inspiring all the things they developed ten years ago, and just now it begins to be 'real'....
