Geek got reclaimed in about 1997... I've seen it used purely descriptively on a regular basis since about 1999. To be a computer geek simply means "One who enjoys spending time with computers and is good at it." last I checked. Same with comics, music and most other subjects. I've even heard people refer to sports geeks.

Nerd is still an insult though :->
