  Give a geek a hug
Time: 05:18 EST/10:18 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Alex Harris

Not really Microsoft news, but still a good read for all us geeks out there!

If you're like most people, when your computer crashes you groan, issue a string of expletives, and then wait idly by until your trusty information technology person rescues you from blue screen hell. On Friday, it's time for you to show your appreciation for those geeks in shining armor.

Ted Kekatos has created System Administrator Appreciation Day, a time to honor the people who neither rain, nor snow, nor bizarre "illegal operation" errors can keep from fixing your machine. Kekatos, a droll system administrator in Chicago, was inspired to create the special day by a Hewlett-Packard ad he saw a few years ago. In the ad, a system administrator is bombarded with presents from employees as thanks for installing new printers.
