A review by yacoob
In the Beginning...Was the Command Line by Neal Stephenson

3.0

Too bad it's outdated. Still, a nice peek inside Stephenson's attitude to humming metal boxes called computers. The popculture metaphor was interesting, if a bit too flowery and excessive.

Funny(?) thing is, after reading Stephenson's preferences with regard to operating systems, I got an instant realisation that he'd probably like Mac OSX. And guess what, he's using it since 2004...
