A person, or an act of a person who is incompitent with technology.
The first type knows what they are, and are deadly afraid of electronics as a result.
The second type are not aware of what they are, and as a result usually end up destroying things in an attempt to fix them.

The caller to the IT helpdesk is techtarded.
You asked someone to set up your DVD player clock, and now it's in a million pieces and they're nowhere to be seen - you *know* when you've been techtarded.

A contraction of "Technological Retard"
Technological + Retard = Techtard
1. Someone who is so "technologically challenged" that they shouldn't be allowed within a 10 mile radius of anything electronic.
2. Someone who often misinterprets/gets confused with IT Support's suggestions/advice. Most Helpdesk operators would rather watch paint dry than talk to these users.
