I think the word ‘nerd’ is now being under stated.

So many ‘non-nerds’ do nerdy things – PS2, online gaming, Internet, technology slaves (e.g.new mobile phone etc.).  Traditional non nerds have been converted with video games like Fifa – a fusion of ‘ned’ or ‘chav’ with ‘nerd’.

Soon ‘nerd’ will be replaced by ‘techy’ – or so I hope!

There doesn’t seem to be much difference with Windows Vista – except it’s full of security holes.

Add to that the barage of questions the OS asks you as you use it and you’ll soon become pissed off and just want to get on with your work.

So far the reaction has been ‘a tarted up version of XP’.  That’s about right.
