Who says you can't do both?
I guess it would seem a bit nerdy, but I don't think that would really turn people away if they were interested, and I think that 'nerdy' and 'geeky' are starting to lose their negative connotations a bit (at least in the post-high school age group). Computer/video games were nerdy, but they're really starting to take off. Computer games are way more accessible though, in terms of cost and availability - there are way more places that you can buy a computer game than where you can buy a telescope. It's also usually easier to 'try before you buy' too (at a friend's place, in store, etc). Maybe people have shorter attention spans too, I don't know - but they're the ones missing out
