I fully understand that outlook, it's quite true that there's always
something you can learn but I don't think that makes you a newbie. A
Linux Newbie (or at least what I perceive a Linux Newbie to be) is
someone who has not long started using Linux and has little knowledge
and experience of Linux.

In that sense when can one say they are no longer a Newbie? I'd like
to remove upgrade my title to intermediate Linux user someday :)
