Oddball gifts for uber geeks

These Christmas gift ideas may surprise even the most hardened geeks in your life

LED Binary Clock 2

Who to give it to: The programming geek

One of the best things about geekhood is being able to laugh at normal people when you understand something that they do not. And what do geeks know that normal people don’t? Binary, of course! After all, there are only 10 types of people in the world...those who understand binary, and those who don’t. True programming geeks spend so much time sifting through code that they probably dream in binary and hex, not boring old decimal. The LED Binary clock ($US19.99, ThinkGeek.com) ensures that your geek will be able to tell the time like nobody else (except other geeks).
