Are we Geeks a product of our genes, our environment or both

Thinking on the test, The Frey (poor guy you can see him getting real agitated (not that I don't respect you or anything dude, I admire and respect any older techie)), and the fact that I got Geek God and i'm barely 16 it got me wondering whether geeks are created by genetics or the environment.

I tend to come down in the middle with it being a bit of both, based purely on myself: because if my genes hadn't coded for the way the bones in my wrist were made then I wouldn't have broken it (preventing me from doing any sport or gym for three years) forcing me to increase my knowledge of computers (what else do I have to do at school? oh yeah study, I forgot about that for a second!) So thats really a combination of both, my genes coded for my bones, the environment made me break it and provided computers and the internet.

What do other people think?
