Long story short... my brother-in-law is one of these "gotta have the latest tech/gadget" junkies and he had never before heard of bitcoin.
Meh, have worked in the IT industry, lots of capable individuals who'd wipe the floor with the best of them aren't necessarily engaged in the culture. I'm wary of most until I see they actually know their shit, and quite mindful of the fact that there's things out there I'm clueless about.
