tech geek
Gadget-obsessed person
A tech geek is someone deeply enthusiastic about technology—computers, gadgets, software, or electronics.
The term combines technical interest with the obsessive devotion implied by geek.
It can be self-applied with pride or used by others with mild condescension: Ask the tech geek in IT to fix your laptop.
I'm such a tech geek—I stayed up all night configuring my home server.
