I finally knuckled down and finished the book Friday. After a strong
start, I discovered that I don't read electronic books very well... I
still prefer my fiction on paper...
No barf bag required.
Meanwhile, I *did* enjoy it, and I did wonder how much rewrite went into
it as I read it. A lot of technolgy update was naturally required after
30ish years! HPC in 1980 was essentially the brand new CRAY I or
perhaps a CDC 60 bit monster or perhaps an IBM. I can't remember now
all the updates I recognized.
For those who haven't read it yet, I do recommend it... good old hairy
chested hard SciFi in a Doug Roberts package!
