Are you the "go-to" person in your house for programming DVRs or recovering deleted files? Or maybe your younger sibling is the tech savvy guru of the house? When I was living with my parents, my sisters and I always argued about who was the "geek" of the house. In the end, they always relied on me, the youngest, to deal with their computer issues—good times! Now I want to know who you consider to be the "techie" of your house. Let me know below! By the way, how adorable is the pic below?! Laptop work sessions in bed are the best!

While my bf is more technical than I, we are both pretty savvy!
1And I wouldnt have it any other way.
2It's me or my dad, whoever's in the house.
3Since my dad's usually gone on business trips, I'm depended upon =D
My dad and I are the ones who always fix my mom's stuff. But I go to him, because he's in computers.
4i love alone
haha
and that picture is SOO ADORABLE!
5When I was growing up, my dad was the "master techie" of the house, with my brother a close second and then me coming up behind as we got older. Now we all live separately, so of course I am the techie of my own apartment since I currently live alone! But when I move in with my boyfriend, it'll probably be a pretty close tie, as we both come from tech-savvy families. So, it kinda depends on the situation and the gadget in question! =)
6I'm definitely the tech geek in my family!
7dh by a billion miles. i have no idea how to fix computer stuff.
8Um, there isn't an option for more than one person?
9My husband and I are both geeks.
My father was a computer programmer and my sisters and I all grew up geeky.
I will never be one of those people with kids that know more than they do about computers.
My whole family is geeky.
You know it is bad when you start getting the IT calls at work instead of your regular responsibilities... plus somehow your number is remotely similiar to the IT Help Desk phone number...
10Me definitely.
11It's me. And it's not just the family, it's my friends and co-workers too!
12Bleh my brother, sadly. He's a jerk.
I'm mom's go-to person when she needs help with silly stuff like e-mail or Word but as far as wires and cables and router stuff goes--it's up to him. Hate it, really.
13Both me and my hubby are the techie. We have his and hers laptops and desktops.
14But I think I'm better since his desktop is currently broken, and mine is running like a champ!
In my circle of family and friends, I am the techie one. However, add my boyfriend into the mix and I start looking like a n00b. ^^ He works on and with computers for a living, so he SHOULD know more!
15Well it depends. When I was leaving with my parents that was me, for my parents, brother, friends, I was the one everybody came to see. But now I'm living with a computer tech guy, so of course, I'm no longer "the guy" at home...
16I'm quite a guru but my boyfriend blows me out of the water...
17My husband and I both. And that pic is so adorable!
18Me, of course!
19Me for sure. I am the IT person!
20i am the one everyone comes to when it has to do with the compuuter etc.
21me in my parents house, my bf is the most techie guy in his and my family but wed on't live together
22Another vote for both me and my husband. He does hardware, I do software and networks.
23I can't say that it is just one person. Both my boyfriend and I are techies, we have our specialties though.
24i'd say my boyfriend.... although i am very good at using/fixing computers, the fact that he has his degree in Computer Science and works for a computer company probably trumps my knowledge.
25Usually, I've always been the most geeky or tech minded anywhere I've lived before. But my new roommate and old friend Jake and I rival each others dorkiness all the time.
His computer fried so he had to send it to the shop, usually we would play World of Warcraft together, we're in the same guild. But since he comes home first he hogs my computer until late at night when I need to get some damn sleep.
So, to retaliate, I got myself a Nintendo DS, of which he is incredibly jealous. We're both very busy, social people. But when we're both at home, at least one of us is playing some sort of game.
We also have 4 console systems in our apartment, we often invite a couple of our friends over to have Wii parties.
So, to sum it up, both my roommate and I are total geeks!
-JR
26Everybody always asks me for help. Yet they never remember what I showed them, so I have to show them again and again.
27It's sort of a toss up- my BF knows all the html and web designing lingo, but I know more about Macs than he does. So we share the responsibility
28Me. Poor Jackson didn't even know how to use a computer when I got hold of him.
29My fiance is, but I run a close second
30My husband definitely is. He builds computers as a hobby. I leave all the techie stuff to him. I can hold my own, but he's got me beaten hands down.
31My husband and I are put to shame by our roommate. He has a HD projector that displays his computer screen, video games, or whatver he wants onto his wall... a whopping 75+ inch screen. Ridiculous!
32My roommate and I are equally geeky and good with tech! =)
33My fiance is definitely more techie. He works, lives, and speaks geek.
34My boyfriend, but I know enough to hold my own and to fix most of my family's computer problems.
35My father! O____O;
to be
an I.T Technician, y/n?!
36but up next in line is of course, me. haha. I plan on following his footsteps.
boyfriend
37I am the techie person in my house. Everybody comes to me with the computer issues.
38The Husband does the hardware, and i do all of the software. he's the PC guy, and i'm the mac goddess.
39I'm the techie, but we're both big, happy nerds and wouldn't have it any other way.
40Both my husband and I are techies. I love the gadgets and he loves the the computer hardware and software. What's better than geeks in love??
41my boyfriend used to be really bad - i would actually have to fight the computer for attention. at one point, he had 3 or 4 that he would play with, take apart, run all these never-even-heard of it operating systems, that sorta thing. now, he codes for a living and doesn't want to even look at the computer when he comes home...it's kinda nice!
42my boyfriend is the geek in the house, but a good teacher in that case too...
43When my hubby isn't around, moi. But if he's around, he's the Primary Geek. Luckily for me, he loves to teach.
44my boyfriend is, but not by much and not always. It really depends on what needs to be fixed.
45Depends what sort of tech, AV stuff, it's me and for anything PC related, it's Hubby...works pretty well that way.
