Geek

 geek n. A person who has chosen concentration rather than conformity;
    one who pursues skill (especially technical skill) and imagination, not
    mainstream social acceptance. Geeks usually have a strong case of
    {neophilia}. Most geeks are adept with computers and treat {hacker} as a
    term of respect, but not all are hackers themselves - and some who are
    in fact hackers normally call themselves geeks anyway, because they
    (quite properly) regard `hacker' as a label that should be bestowed by
    others rather than self-assumed.
