I hope this is in the right area, but does it seem, that most members here, are Into cars (such as the VL) and into computers? As my missus says, a Computer nerd, and rev head, rolled into one. wat a dangerous mix. Who else here, suffers the same? Into ya pc's (websites, games, porn surfin) and into cars (driving, racing, burnouts).

If you become a member, we actually have a section called "Geek Central" just for PC related stuff, like game reviews (if you can call it that) and a fair bit of PC help.

Most blokes I know with jazzed up computers who play online games and live in their parent's basement (j/k) all have turbos or dream about turbos or v8's...My mate who fixes puters in the army just bought a brand new XR6T... complete revhead and complete geek.. As for me? Well I fix computers too - have my own business... and I own a calais turbo... so I guess i'm in the same boat :P Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I wouldn't class my self as a computer bloke, but I love going to LANS and playing Battlefield 1942. We used to play lots of Action Halflife, and Quake when that was around. Bought myself a new PC the other week, a 3.2 P4 @ 9800 Radeon and loving every second of it.

I build my own computers and play it a lot, but I'd hardly say I was a 'nerd.' pretty much everyone knows something about computers these days but.
