To quote from The New Hacker?s Dictionary, a computer geek is ?one who eats (computer) bugs for a living. One who fulfills all the dreariest negative stereotypes about hackers: an asocial, malodorous, pasty-faced monomaniac with all the personality of a cheese grater. Cannot be used by outsiders without implied insult to all hackers. A computer geek may be either a fundamentally clueless individual or a proto-hacker in larval stage. Also called ?turbo nerd? or ?turbo geek.? ?
Sounds about right to me, what do you guys/gals think?
I suppose I'm a geek :)
