re: Requests for a Tech Board appear to have surpassed requests for a Music Board...

If it's not planned, they could simply say so - "There are currently no plans for a Tech Board." End of story. Hopefully, though, that's not the case.
As mentioned, I don't think that music necessarily provides a platform for consistent, engaging discussions. It's somewhat of a one dimensional topic. Many of the threads seem to be some variation of, "Do you like this artist/band/group", or "What are you listening to?"
Repeatedly on the OT, we see multi page threads discussing Android vs iOS, new laptops, HDTVs, Windows vs OSX, broadband, computers, router help, Verizon/AT&T/Sprint, and so forth. Just like politics, technology provides an opportunity for engaging, in-depth discussions. Every major news outlet has a dedicated section just for tech related news. It's a dynamic topic, with tech related topics making headlines on a daily basis.
I think it would be a bit of a stretch to suggest that a tech board would fair as poorly, in terms of activity, as the music board.

It's going to be hilarious when a tech board is created and Cs is banned for having an alter.
