MICROSERFS - yes gamedev is da bomb
I''m sure many of my nerden brethren have read the great novel "Microserfs" by Douglas Coupland. If thou hath not, I suggest readint it, it''s about microsoft employees going through wierd psychoses etc. etc. and is very interesting, - by the author of "Generation X."
Anyway, I was just wondering, does anybody have this book in digital format??? If so PLEASE email it to me (modilly@hotmail.com) by clicking on my profile or something or reply to this post w/ some info-info!
thnx!,

Ugh, I hated that book.
No plot at all --just various unlikeable characters making pop-culture references at each other for 200 pages, peppered with pages of Coupland making random commentary about his personal fetishes in random-size fonts, all culminating in the astounding revelation that Legos are cool.
IMHO, Coupland''s the most overrated author out there.

okay, johnhattan, you just completely killed my ambittion for wanting to read that again, thanks for the reminder hehe
Try Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution by Steven Levy. IMHO, it''s better in all respects.
And, on top of it all, it actually happened.
You might also like Soul of a New Machine or Show-Stopper! : The Breakneck Race to Create Windows Nt and the Next Generation at Microsoft
. They''re both quite good.
