Yeah!
sometimes i myself felt that i want to be a hacker, when things going wrong with my pc. when everything is fine, then there is no need to learn(of course it is), but as human beings, we are all set here to learn throught out the life. When i came across some good things about hackers, i had a look at some poem, which is describing the attitude of a typical hacker.
To follow the path:
look to the master,
follow the master,
walk with the master,
see through the master,
become the master.
A an attitude of a hacker is being described by the following five points.
1. The world is full of fascinating problems waiting to be solved.
2. No problem should ever have to be solved twice.
3. Boredom and drudgery are evil.
4. Freedom is good.
5. Attitude is no substitute for competence.
There is much difference between a hacker and a cracker, hackers are for the good, and crackers are for the bad. But i think one can easily convert to cracker from hacker, when he is not obeying the laws of hacking. For those who want to become a good hacker please refer to this link as a starting point.
