Geek, Nerd or Dork?

[thewayne]

Can't say that I'm surprised. :-) I didn't think that I was that much of a dork, though.

Pure Nerd 65 % Nerd, 17% Geek, 17% Dork

For The Record: A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia. A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one. A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions. You scored better than half in all Nerd, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd. The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up all of the traits and tendences associated with the "dork." No-longer. Being smart isn't as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be replaced with the following label: Purely Successful. Congratulations!

My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 56% on nerdiness You scored higher than 6% on geekosity You scored higher than 6% on dork points

Hehe, this entry seems like as good as it's gonna get for me to pose this question: I'm in the market for a laptop again (this time I actually do have the money for it! Or at least, I definitely will soon). I've done a little shopping around, but haven't found anything too great in the $500-$600 price range. Where might I find a decent laptop at that price?

www.overstock.com and www.bobjohnson.com. Definitely the two places I would shop.

In fact, Overstock has my Thinkpad, a P3/1.1GHz for $600 right now. http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?page=proframe&prod_id=736739

Goodl luck!
