I think this attitude began in the days when sys admins and programmers were
a despised sub-culture in the corporate world. And face it, they still are
in many business environments. So, the computer jockeys return the hate by
coming down on anybody who isn't initiated into the dark arts of the bastard
operator from hell (BOFH for The Register fans). About ten years back, I
used to read a news group for sys admins. They were unanimous in referring
to their inhouse clients as "lusers".
