20% for me.
I guess we all have at least a little geekness in us.
Didn't know any of the computer stuff but I like Star Trek and started playing video games before 1980 with the old Atari 2600.

I STILL don't know what the hell " Powned " means

Why the hell did I get geek credit because I started playing video games in 80-85? That's just flat out age descrimination ! I hardly ever play them anymore !

Cooltimes:

Here is another oldie score, 30%. Should i be prod or ashamed?
Dave slap.gif


Proud for the older geeks with lower scores.That means we got to spend more time driving our 914's than the ones that scored higher which I still ain't certain what they were doing in the quiz questions anyhow.

Nicole Smith, X men and Friends knowledge vs The Beverly Hillbillies, Gunsmoke and Mayberry from our days of leisure is sort of the focal point. LOL
These kids are smarter but they need to remember, we made it happen. beerchug.gif

But that is because I primarily use Windows Servers for my job.......


( and I beat the UNIX bigot that started this thread! poke.gif)
I'm less of a Unix bigot then you are a windas bigot. wink.gif I do have a Unix preference as far as an occupation is concerned.

I posted this thread from an XP box. I'm adding this reply on a different XP box. Later I might use my Macbook. Tomorrow I'll be doing a very strange Sun Cluster swap across 2 sets of hardware using a Dell PC running Solaris10. I've got a Linux box (2...3?) around here somewhere. I'll use whatever it takes to get the job done.

That's my I answered that OS question as "I use a bunch of different ones."

Edit: I knew DD would be up there!


I spent the day downloading Knoppix 5.1.1. Did the burn to a DVD and spent the rest of the day trying to boot without XP. Never happened. Do you have to have a higher score than 42% Geek status to do that. Help. Someone SEND me a DISK so I can become a real Geek ...which for the older generation is .... SQUEEKS.

Holly Shmolley! A 79% for me?

I dunno... I really don't consider myself _that_ much of a Geek. But I guess so. Maybe it's the differentiation between "geek" and "nerd". Okay, so some would say I'm a professional "geek" (gub'ment physicist)... But that would put some friends of mine waaaay above 100%...

I'm thinking of one friend who (and I kid you not) wears a BINARY wrist watch. Just a string of LED's. He reads the time as quickly as you or I would read an analog watch (my prefered wrist watch). He is definitely an uber-geek (and a very good friend). Another example, he has a Toyota Prius, and was very pooud when he got his custom plates... "DEL X B"... If you get it, you get some geek points yourself, if not, feel safe in the knowledge that you aren't entirely hopeless... biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

I gotta send him the link to that test and see what he gets...

At least DD is one point higher... biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

71%.
I would have fared better if they had more internet porn questions and fewer Star Trek questions.

Dude, I have 30 grand invested in a 1974 914, of course I am a geek. I am pretty sure this is my first post, so hllo to all of my fellow geeks. Gottago - Voyager is on...
type47
yea! 29% , maybe would have been higher but there were no questions about integrating over Gaussian surfaces. sad.gif
jhadler
Huh... All I had to do was remember the right answer to one, and think about the other, and it went up to 87%... Yeesh, I must be a G-E-E-K...

But the deceptively low score is mostly because I've never been a fan of Star Trek


nice try, but there's only one (1) star trek question in the whole quiz ...

Okay, I told my friend, and he and his wife both took the quiz. So much the geek, he "broke" the quiz, got 137%. His wife, without using the bug they discovered (yes, they're that brilliantly geeky), scored 99%!!!

Nice to know two of my closest friends are "power geeks".

It would have been lower but its so darn easy these days to know more than a salesperson, and what's wrong with books?
flesburg
I'm 65 yo and scored 45%, so does that make me a geezer geek, or a old fart geek?

But I took the quiz before John (#2 son) posted the answers.

Then I cheated and got 101% geek. Do geeks cheat?

52% I feel quite balanced
