I guess being as familiar with Dave Barry's subject matter as I am, and being a long-time anti-fan of Bill Gates, Dave was bound to tickle my funny bone. My fellow passengers on the plane must have wondered what I had been smoking. ( ) Most of the book was fluid, funny, and easy to read. Reading this today, I'm shocked by how much hasn't changed in the years between Comdex, Prodigy, Windows 95 and today. Near the end, he took a break from his usual humor style to tell a story about an online romance in the days when such a thing was met with confusion and derision. It really tugged at my heartstrings, and I'm glad he reprised it at the very end. This one's staying on my shelf for a while. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Now here's a match up, sports fans: Dave Barry versus the information superhighway, mano mano. Self-proclaimed computer geek and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Dave starts off his rip-roaring tour with the most important computer tip of all: "Never read the instructions," and slides from there into the world of hardware, software, error messages, autocache, Windows 95 and the critical issue of RAM. "The function of RAM," according to Dave, "is to give guys a way of deciding whose computer has the biggest, most tumescent memory...The bottom line is, if you're a guy, you cannot have enough RAM. Bill Gates currently has over 743 billion 'megs' of RAM and he still routinely feels the need to stuff a zucchini in his underwear.". No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
