Poll: who's more of a tech geek?
you or your H?
Definitely me. Even though DH is only almost 2 yrs older, sometimes I think he's older because he doesn't know anything about computers or electronics. Hes a technophobe.
I think it's because I grew up helping my dad fix stuff.

Definitely DH. He went to school for networking.
I'm more likely to figure out the ins and outs of a specific program.
DH is also a gamer, which has rubbed off on me.
This... I'm the one who has the gadgets (cell phones, BB, iTouch, laptop, Nintendo DS). He works in the electronics industry so he has the knowledge, but not the obsession. He likes him home theatre/gaming stuff though.
Definitely me.
He comes crying to me for everything techie-related.
Definitely DH.
We're both software developers, but I have a bunch of other hobbies (reading, crafts, travel planning, etc). When I come home after a day of coding, I usually like to do something else. DH comes home and codes more.
He keeps books on design patterns and new programming languages in the bathroom, and on our summer vacation, he insisted that I bring something technical along with my novels. He packed a book on Ruby, and I ended up lugging .NET Framework Design Guidelines all the way to Alaska!
DH for sure. He built our computer and spent a few months trying to fix his laptop when it died. He thinks I know nothing about computers because I can't build one but I know my way around the internet and a desktop menu. He is impressed if I troubleshoot myself out of a situation.
He is also a huge gadget geek. HUGE. And a gamer. He is pretty much all nerd.
We're about equal tech-geek wise. He's an IT consultant and I'm a programmer.
ETA: We both have the same IS degree (though I went on for the MMIS and he didn't). We can both build a computer, and have many times (though I don't mess with hardware much anymore). I do sql, websites, and desktop apps while he does everything else.
