The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply.
Your question was:

> Oh most RAM-abundant Oracle whose chips have more MIPS and whose hard
> disk is never scuzzy and never goes floppy...
>
> I've been working in the computer industry for 8.5 years now, and I'm
> doing reasonably well, but my problem is that I'm just not cool enough
> to be a guru, and not nerdy enough to be a geek. What should I do?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Your qualifications are a textbook case for MANAGEMENT.
}
} You owe the Oracle a raise.
