Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions Grills or no grills

Lesseee:

1. I work in the IT industry.
2. I have a dual proc machine at home, with not nearly that much RAM.
3. I have dual monitors.
4. I have Axiom speakers and I made my own cable.
5. Uh...
6. I have a Newton!
7. Um...

Yeah, me too. But you seem to be geekier. Do you read /.?

I think I'm a GEEK too .
I'm a systems engineer (IT). I own a Pocket PC with a 1Gb microdrive and wireless with terminal services client and ssh client like putty.
At home I have a Dell half rack with three servers, two of them running RedHat Linux 7.2 (I like this distro) for web and test purposes. I do a lot of home automation (part of my job) and linux is the OS of choice. The third server is W2k Advanced server; it's also a test platform. Finally, I have a T1 running for VPN, internet, web and email. We use the T1 for my wife’s business.

Nothing wrong being a GEEK

I re-read my reply. I does kind of sound like a BIG GEEK CONTEST That wasn't my intention

My name is Andrew, and I am a geek.
I realized I had a problem when (at 18) I discovered that the natural log of the number of dice I had was greater than the number of women I had slept with. I immediately realized that if I didn't alter my lifestyle I would be faced with serious problems later in life. I began to go out into the sun, and found that my skin gradually became less and less translucent as the days elapsed. I also found that my car would not spontaneously combust if I broke the speed limit, and that if I put down the MySQL book it was much easier to watch the television. While I never managed to truely grasp the wonders of Buffy, Boyz II Men, or Legally Blonde, I am happy to say now that my dice collection has not grown substantially, while my black book has fattened considerably. I will admit that I have a 256 MB USB drive in my pocket as I write this, but it has mp3s on it, and that is "cool". As it stands now, a significant portion of my paycheck would have to be diverted to Chessex in order for me to plunge once again to the depths of geekdom where I once dwelled.

hello andrew!! thanks for opening up to us.

well, at least its good you have moved past denial, and are on the track to recovery and acceptance. and remeber, you can take the man out of the geek, but you can never take the geek out of the man..

and besides, havent those chicks figured out.. GEEKS DO IT BETTER!!

bigjohn

Yesss... Think "Revenge of the Nerds." Think "Moonlanding" Scene... Geeks do it better. Cause that's all we think about.

Just to get back on track for a second,

It would seem that David Wilson has found that some grills can in fact change the frequency response. The test is a few years old but still valid.

..........and yes I'm a GEEK to and dam proud of it!!!!!
