    You are pretty darned geeky
    Based upon your responses to this quiz, you appear to be firmly entrenched in geekhood. Does this make you a nerd, a technophile, an expert in all this computer-related? Well, pretty much, yes. Friends and family likely come to you for answers to all sorts of questions technology and computer related. You are their tech idol.

    But that's really not surprising, now is it? You know mainstream technology references, and you know and are interested in keeping up on nerdy sorts of stuff. (Although we didn't ask, we bet you're probably a regular reader of /. too!)

    But what does all of this mean??! Well, it means you're firmly entrenched in the grasp of technology and it's not letting go anytime soon! Take it easy, try and keep a balanced view of technology's place in your life, and you should be able to lead a fairly normal life while slouched on your couch in front of your LCD widescreen.

    No geek vibes detected
    Based upon your responses to this quiz, you appear not to be infected by much, if any, geekness. You should be okay and feel safe about this. Although it may mean you're more prone to getting a virus online or clicking to install spyware on your computer, basically, your life and technology are two separate things. In the end, this may be for the best (for both your life, and for technology!).

    You should not take this as a diagnosis or recommendation for treatment in any way, though.

    You are almost a geek
    Based upon your responses to this quiz, you have a lot of geek qualities and traits. You probably know more computer-related stuff than most of your friends and are viewed by many of them as an expert. However, your true geek knowledge is somewhat limited. That is to be expected if you are (a) a woman or (b) a teen. If you are, however, simply a guy who's not one of the above, well, maybe it's a good thing that you're not a pure geek. Some people just weren't meant to be one, they were meant to live normal, fulfilling lives.

    Congratulations on having access to such a life!! Enjoy it.

    Just for kicks, I did the test again. This time, I answered as Geeky as I know how. :D

    You scored a total of 35

    You are pure geek
    Based upon your responses to this quiz, you are pure geek. Congratulations! Few people attain this level of geekhood with so many pop-culture references, access to legacy equipment, and knowing the Internet like the back of your hand. You rule, but you already knew that, didn't you?

    So what to do about it? Well, we don't know what to tell you. If you have a successful life and have figured out a way to leverage (don't you just hate that word?) your geek skills to your advantage (e.g., money, babes/hunks, etc.), well, you've figured it out, haven't you? If you haven't, all we can tell you is that, believe it or not, your skills may be recognized and appreciated. Someday. It may not be tomorrow, but hey, it could be the day after!

    19 - "You are pretty darned geeky." I'm also a bit "nerdy", but I like to hear the ladies singing Jazz, which adds a bit of "cool" to the mix. Of course you all know that a geek is defined as one who bites the heads off live animals - snakes, chickens, bats --- that makes Ozzie Osbourne a geek too!!!:):)

    19 .....but in my case ..you are suffering from geek feelings which are causing you concern and interfere with your daily or technology functioning, and should seek immediate treatment from a trained mental health or social services professional within your community.

    Anybody got the phone number?
