Geeky challenge

[drwex]

At dinner discussion last night one of my coworkers asserted that Tony Stark was the only engineer(1) in pop culture who is depicted as attractive. I dispute this, but so far I've only been able to come up with two counter-examples:

1. Kaylee (Firefly)
2. Geordi (ST:TNG) - not my type, but I've definitely heard women say appreciative things about LeVar Burton in that role.

(1) the rules of the game exclude doctors (e.g. Bruce Banner) and straight-up scientists (e.g Jon Osterman/Dr Manhattan from Watchmen).

Help me, oh geeks of my acquaintance. What am I forgetting?

ETA: I think we might include Bruce Wayne/Batman, at least in some incarnations, and MacGuyver. ETA 2: I think Dan Dreiberg from Watchmen also qualifies.

If being "a doctor" (in the same way that Banner is, ie, has a PhD) then neither Fitz nor Simmons counts, as they both have multiple PhDs.

OTOH, Simmons is very clearly portrayed as a engineer, just bio-oriented.

And Banner, in the current Marvel Cinematic Universe, is a dual PhD in Biology and Physics, and not an MD.
