Buying a gift for the digerati can be pretty intimidating for the average human. We've put this gift guide together so you can please even the pickiest geek this year. Of course, the ultimate geek gift is a brand-new computer system. I know you're sick of hearing this, but there's never been a better time to buy a system.
Basic systems are less than a grand.
My favorite place in town for great deals is the Dell Factory Outlet. What they lack in ambiance and service they more than make up for with great prices. Other than systems, there are two basic categories of geek gifts. Some gifts require you to know something about your pet geek's computer, some do not. In general, highly specialized items should be avoided.
