I guess this relates to that other thread regarding the usage of "otaku" but even if they label you as one, do they mean it in any spiteful or hateful way?
For example, over here, displaying interest and discussing about computers, science and other similar areas will get you labeled as a geek or nerd. But there's no good or bad connotation that's inherent in that label. A friend might describe someone as "nice but pretty geeky".
