[QUOTE="Shonver, post: 41787, member: 34"] Just me being anal, but I believe the "nerd" refers to a personality type, mostly characterised by being uncool and out of touch with the mainstream. Whereas I believe the term you are looking for is "geek"; basically someone who has a curiosity of technological issues. Nerds can be geeks. Geeks can be out of the mainstream (most are). But I don't think all nerds are geeks. Oh, yeah: my first home theatre was PC-based. I'm not a computer type, though. I get by with the bare minimum IT knowledge. [/QUOTE]
