Very funny show - had me laughing and dribbling snot on a packed commuter train this morning. The upside of this was I had two seats to myself as for some reason people were avoiding me.
I listened to this show. I laughed so hard I almost dropped my pocket protector in my USB coffee maker.
I scored high! I visit engadget often, I even listen to the podcast, I run Linux (and not just on a PC!!! on a Mac (ubuntu), and even on a PocketPC which I flashed.... How's that for geek?)
Check out www.geekculture.com is the definitive geek site!
I am geekier than thou.... (my little image that goes with my posts is a picture of Geek God Steve Jobs from the Geek Culture cartoon series).

I only scored 1 (for running Linux - I have 5 Linux boxes in our house, sitting alongside Windows XP PCs using KVM to switch). Mac OSX is based on FeeBSD, as far as I know. So it is not Linux, but it is a free version of Unix. Also have an iMac, the one that looks like a lamp (sexy). I am definitely a geek though, big time, ask anyone :-). Good show.

Hey guys,
I listened to this show. I laughed so hard I almost dropped my pocket protector in my USB coffee maker.
