4 out of 5 stars It's Great!   December 13, 2001

I did my A-Level English Coursework on this kind of thing, and afterwards bought this book. My coursework got an A, but this book is a tuna to my cousework's whitebait!!! I love it and it means I don't have to persuade my parents to let me online whenever I want to find an "appropriate" phrase for something!!! A tad boring occasionally, but the good bits out-number the bad bits by about 100-1! Some neat stories in the back too!

This book is very worth reading. It teaches you all the computer Jargong and mythology/legends in a concise and good way. Many parts made me laugh,or what do you say about "bogo meter" and "waving a dead chicken".

One of the best books I ever have read.

(My email address means programmer, that was taken)

As much as I usually like this kind of book, it throws a bunch of abuse in the poorly disguised form of comedy.. I have been in the "scene" for a long time now, and most of these words are total rubbish, however I will concede to them making _some_ (Abliet few) good points..

Detailed explanations of almost every computer related term out there. If you are not familar with the lingo then this book will explain everything you need to know. A great desktop reference guide.
