It's commonly refered to as the 'tech bubble' i.e. the zone around a hard core geek where system start working because they know the geek will disassemble them, to thier component parts, if necesary to get to the bottom of the problem.
Really good geeks have a tech bubble that can extend several meters away, and indeed are often employed to just sit in a server room and keep everything working purely by their presence.
