Metal Gear Solid, Microsoft Word.
What are you playing and working on right now: That New Hulk Game, and just trying to move to Tempe.
What is your current screensaver, background, or wallpaper: A girl that has my nickname on her chest.
What's so special about your computer (room):
My computer is custom built really, and it has neon lights, if that counts.
How many computers do you have: A Windows Custom and a Mac Mini 1.5 GHz.
What was your first computer: It was probably a Pentium II - 266.
Do you remember the first program you ran on it (or the first game you played): I'm guessing that is was probably or should've been Quake II, Capture The Flag!!!
Geekiest moment of your life: Probably when I quit my old school to go into Game Programming (Was set out to be a Network Administrator), Dude, I am going into Game Programming for my career, granted it will net me money, but if that is not the geekiest job to get into, then I don't know what is.
When did you first realize you were a geek:
When I reached 5,000 posts on an Iinternet message board.
Have you ever said anything geeky that someone else did not understand: Jason has been known to use BRB and ROFL in normal conversation.
What is the funniest/most bizarre computer/Internet/geeky experience you have ever had: The time that I got that cel-phone delivered to my office in an envelope, and then it rang, and then this guy warned me about some guys, and I crawled through the cubicles to get away from them, and then went out onto this ledge, and then...oh wait, no, that was The Matrix.
What is your favourite quote:
The Internet is Serious Business." -- Thanks Atomix for that one
If you were a computer program, you would be: why:
Microsoft Word -- My grammar is terrible.
What do you do when you are (heaven forbid) not at your computer(s):
Study, watch scitleC (Celtics) games, memorize Pi to 30 decimal places.
You
have a time machine that can only be used once. If you use it you will
not come back. What date would you set it to, and what ONE thing would
you take with you (not a computer): I'm guessing that Jason would probably use the time machine to go back in time to warn himself not to install Windows ME on his laptop, and he would probably bring bring a rescue disk in case he didn't get there in "time."

(*creative liberties may have been taken for the benefit of the reading audience)
Jason, who is a big fan of the word "dude", says he knows .html and "pretty much the business of gaming in general." Jason, who has been known to double-click his TV remote control, knows that the three most dangerous things are a programmer with a soldering iron, a manager who codes, and a user who gets ideas.
