Are you a Techno Sexual?

[Chino Kapone]

i would probably classify myself as one. I have an Ipod, laptop, 50" flatscreen, 3 xm units, a Dyson, been through many different cell phones. All of my furniture is really modern and high end.

Who else is a Techno Sexual?

[Dr. Hoffman]

I would never claim to be. I enjoy and have much of what you have not because its the thing of the moment but because I have done my research and have chosen what I think is the best product. I will admit to being slightly metro-sexual though.

[Razor Roman]

I like gadgets and shit, but don't care if they're the newest "sexiest" ones, just that they do the job... doesn't mean I don't want high quality, just don't care if its the newest... and high quality and sexy usually don't go together anyway.

[tstlkevanilla]

Do we really need a label for everything in this society..

Would I be a technosexual if I stuck a iphone in my ass, repeatedly called it, and let the vibrations tickle my prostate till I came?

I consider myself a pretty big gadget geek, guess technosexual is a euphemism. I have actually imported gadgets and computers from Japan.

Anyway I think that I browse gadget sites more than p0rn sites. Speaking of gadget site I came across this little gadget.... ouch!

Pfft.... a contrarian.

[VMS]

iPhones are for queers, anyway. They're for all the people who've been completely sucked in by Apple's ability to convince everyone they're not a giant corporation that's just markets really fucking well.

You want a real smartphone? Buy a Treo. Expandable memory, open architecture (you don't have to hack it to add programs, like you do with the iPhone), better processing, and at least as user-friendly.

Oh, and it plays music, too. Without needing headphones. And video. Fuckwads.

I'm a ts, and a big fat tub of shit! :)
I have an ipod (the 5th I've owned) an Inno (my 2nd XM unit), an imac, a graphite g4 (I've lost count of the macs Ive owned), I have a decent stereo (I'll get a better one soon), a PS2, a Napster Mp3 player; I can fix/upgrade my own macs, I can setup a network and my Apple airport system, and I'm learning how to troubleshoot Windows (without erasing the drive & re-installing). I'm also a professional designer/illustrator.

Just like some of you said, I like quality stuff but not the trendy hipster things. Like Bang and Olufsen too over priced and old technology. But I will get an Iphone, may just replace my laptop

i have all that shit,. and dont get laid

worst term ever. i like reading up on the latest technologies...but i would never classify myself as a technosexual. i get douche chills from it, almost as bad as the "bubbagon"

rookies, 150" projector.

Yea, I was going to mention that anyone who doesn't have a projector is a rookie. As far as home set-up... you're not a pro if you can get it all off the shelf at a local retailer. I was in one house where the guy spent 200k on his media room. He's a shipping magnate so he could afford it.

I'm technically adept. I'm not keen with computer building or programming but I'm pretty good at repairing and tweaking them. I can network well since I have a fair understanding of the OSI layers and why they matter. Plus my job keeps me abreast of the latest in telecommunications. I always am within minutes of an internet ready device usually a portable laptop. My vehicle is actually a 3G wi-fi hotspot.

But anyone who uses the term technoi-sexual to describe themself is a faggot.

[CM Mark]

I'm pretty much the same to some degree.. Just need to find a similar job & still have some to learn. My stuff is shelf bought, but I have designed & installed better. Just don't use it enough to spend the money.
Tho I just don't understand the sexual connection. That just seems stupid.

How did you set your car up as a spot???

I think the fact that I don't really understand what any of that means disqualifies me as a techno-sexual.

I have a RAZR phone, but just because it was a good price and it fits well in my pocket. Oh, and a Bluetooth, but only because I'm not allowed to talk on the phone in my work truck. That's about it.

And I've got a diamond plate skin for my phone. I'm trying for redneck, at least.

[hypes]

Unfortunatly, I'm afraid I fall under the category, but I don't like it.

-Samsung 60" DLP rear projection television
-Three XM radios (Tao XM2Go, Polk XRT12 reference tuner, and a Roady) (and support two other Roady's for other friends)
-Three DirecTV DirecTiVo's hacked for Multi-Room Viewing and Home Media Option (plus an extra drive in each for more storage)
-Yamaha 1000 watt 7.2 THX 2 Certified receiver (with up and downconvert options, HDMI, Component, S-Video, the works....)
-Klipsch THX certified reference speakers for a full THX setup (including two subwoofers)
-Yamaha outdoor speakers so I can pipe music outside while on the porch
-Toshiba progressive scan DVD player (no hi-def DVD or blu-ray player yet ...waiting to see which format wins)
-Pioneer high-end Laserdisc player (and about 1000+ laserdiscs)
-Toshiba high-end VCR (high-end in the sense that it has 4 heads, outputs in Dolby ProLogic, and has an S-Video output)
-Kenwood 200 disc CD changer (but it is rarely used)
-Playstation 1, Playstation 2, Sega Dreamcast, and a Nintendo Gamecube (and a Wii on the way...)
-11 networked computers (3 desktops (all home built), 4 rackmount servers (all home built), 1 PocketPC (Dell Axim x51v), and 2 TabletPC's (both from Gateway since I used to work there...), and a Home Theater PC (which is a 2 GHz MicroATX system in a small case) so I can stream mp3's and xvid videos I "appropriate" and play NES, SNES, Genesis, Atari, and other older console emulators...oh, and I modded all the controllers to have USB connectors so it's like playing with the real system)
-Over 5 terabytes of hard drive space on a NAS (Network Accessable Storage)
-Over 2 terabytes of nothing but mp3's...
-Over 5,000 DVD's (some of which were boughten, most of which reside on a hard drive)
-Entire house wired for gigabyte wired and 802.11n wireless internet
-Built my own HVAC, lighting, drapes, and fireplace controllers so I can control everything from a multi-use remote

(there's also a ton of other equipment I'm not naming...like the 50+ Commodore computers I collect, all the older Apple Macintosh's and Lisa, the high-end photo printer, the industrial scanner for converting 35mm photos to digital copies, the digital cameras, and a bevy of other stuff).

....and I'm a software engineer/architect for a major aerospace company.

Oh...did I menition I also collect comic books and cartoon-related toys?? Is it also pathetic I own every single Kevin Smith inaction toy and they're all signed by the actor who played the character. This collection takes up (literally) 6 feet by 12 feet of wall space....

(edited to add the stuff I forgot)
