technopath

a person with the ability to fix computers and related devices without touching them.

I called Roberta to fix my computer. The computer was completely frozen and nothing I did worked to fix it. She walked into my room, and as she came within a foot of the computer, it miraculously started working perfectly again. She is an amazing technopath, and I have seen these technopathic skills displayed by her over and over again.
