In my book you can hardly call Bill Gates a nerd, I would describe him as a computer geek, but never a nerd.

Just my two cents

"Social misfit" might be one way to describe it, although the general idea is that nerds are very intelligent, which not every misfit is.

There's a very silly movie called "Revenge of the Nerds" that would show you a panoply of nerds if you really wanted to research the topic.
