hmm see this is tough because I go back and forth. I don't really love or hate either side...

Are you SURE you're a nerd?

you're right, i'm not a nerd...i'm a geek! and a true computer geek could appreciate both sides. But my next computer will be AMD, and i'll probably go AMD because they are more bang for your buck. The one computer i have now was a graducation present so it was free. and as far as video cards, i'll go with whatever is the best bang for the buck there too. And as far as cars, i own a mustang...for the 2nd time...i probably won't get another american car for a while after this one.

Careful about the vernacular there, man. Apparently, "Nerd" is the smart socially adjusted one while "Geek" is the antisocial outcast type, according to the folks of ATOT.

see i see it the other way around, nerd is the anitisocial outcast type and geek just happens to be a normal person who loves technology! That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

Amazing. :Q Maybe all the kiddies are out for spring break.

I'm really surprised myself - look at my first post in this thread, lol

I see a FUBAR in your future, run while you still can.

That is the claim that Leo Laport asserted on ZDTV years back, so I'm willing to accept it as canon.

Canon?!?

I havent heard that since my D&D days.

DAMN!
I guess we must have some nerds here.

 

[Fenixgoon]

if you post anything involving women, you MUST post pictures to go along with the thread

Hey, I'm manuel and I don't have any other nicknames (wtf).

To vshah (congrats for your new Acura) => AMD/Nvidia/Japanese (just because germans are too expensive)/burger king/diet pepsi.

Although I'm not a D&D player, I just like tossing around $7 words


And I am a huge nerd

and that's just for you guys here at anandtech. I've NEVER posted my picture on the tweak3d forums and i was with them since 1997!

crappy pic...I know. I'm 22 years old by the way.

Welcome Josh! You actually posted a pic, I am in bit of shock, but I was curious enough to actually copy and paste it in the address bar. For future reference, if you don't know already, you may wanna check out bbzzdd.com. Nice to have you here. :beer:
