Actually it IS very hacker-like.

Hackers care about using the machine to DO (as in "hack") stuff. Faster, ok, better. Most top notch programmers could not care less if they have a state of the art CPU or not.

What it is not, is very tinkerer-like.

Tinkerers use the machine just to use the machine, and they eat precise specs for breakfast.
