Maybe you would like to pick up a copy of Douglas Coupland's
Microserfs. What actually happens is not always humorous, but his
characters say such geeky things that computer literate people have to
laugh at like: "I'm person@something.com" It's really not something you
need to read into deeper, which is probably a benefit considering the
amount of pain you may be in.
When you said that neither Leonardo or Jared Leto would be good (which i
wholeheartedly agree with), I thought of both Ethan Hawke (around Dead
Poet's Sociey) and River Phoenix (Stand by Me) might be able to pull off
that not really attractive geeky teenage adolescent type holden thing.
I don't know of any current actors who could play the part though.
Good luck with your surgery.
