Hardware, Software, Gamer, Science, and Tech in general.
Why do you consider yourself a geek?
My interests, my personality. There are few in my community who are anything like me, but I'm proud to be unique.
How did you find out about our Geek community?
From watching the live stream silly.
What are your "geeky equipment" specs?
I have two computers that run right now.
Compaq -
Processor - Celeron "Coppermine" ~ 600 Mhz
Memory - 64 megs
Gpu - Intel 810e (integrated)

What do you want to be when you grow up?
Anything related to Physics and Engineering.
What makes you laugh?
Other people trying to play complacated video games, or horror games. Oh, and a whole bunch of other stuff. Too much to list.
What is the thing in life you treasure most?
Haley, that's an easy one.
What's the geekiest thing you've ever done?
I'm going to have to think about this one.. lord only knows, plenty of things. I actually build computers with older hardware just to see how far I can push them. Voodoo 2 Sli running doom 3 anyone? Been there.
What do you do to entertain yourself?
Hang out on my computer.. I used to build websites.
Ok, I've decided to add some stuff, more to come at a later date.
Music- My musical interests are rather broad. I'll listen to just about anything ranging from country to rock with the small exception of rap. I could never get into that. I'm taking guitar lessons and I can play the piano which I enjoy doing.. there's just something about piano music that gets to me.
Books- I do a lot of reading, romance, mystery, scifi, the works. I like a good mix of multiple categories and for a guy I'm a sucker for love stories... I usually head for the sci fi though. Books that I've recently finished. Twilight: New Moon, Children of the Mind : Ender's Series, Bartimaeus Trilogy : Golems Eye, and Oasis.
Games- Pretty much anything that's not an mmo. I never got sucked into the whole mmo addiction that's been sweeping the nation.. I play world of warcraft amongst other mmos I just don't do so religiously. I like to broaden my horizon and play other great games like F.E.A.R., Crysis, and Bioshock.
