You must "rm -R /" from the shelves by buying it!
Great book for the geek! I start my day at work with my fix of the "Daily Static" otherwise know as the User Friendly comic strip. ... It touches on many of the issues facing the technical geek today from the point of view of the geek. Issues range from the AOL, Time-Warner merger to the geek and dating (yes, it is an oxymoron).
The cast of characters are all well developed, even if they do only have four fingers. It is an enjoyable read and re-read. Get this for yourself or for your favorite geek. They will enjoy it!

Very funny stuff
If you don't find at least some of the strips very funny, you should have your geek status removed. :)

Amusing, but not for everyone (not even all geeks :-)
It's a good book, but I think previous books have been funnier. Similar Products
