I completely agree (and I'll avoid starting out by writing 'This.', cause I hate that.)
I've got 15k "geek points" and I'm hard pressed to know what I'd redeem them for...
So, can we get a list of alternatives for nerd (rather than pop-culture geek) shopping? For self and family? (The worst gift I gave my wife was a Micro-Vax one year... But she did like the vintage spectrometer.)

- spitfire 13y agoWas it an actual vintage microvax or are people reproducing FPGA microvaxes now? If it's an FPGA one I'd like to know where to get one so I can play around a bit.
