I am pretty excited about Kevin Mitnick's book. In the early days when I first got on the web - my first attempt was to try and figure out a way to get past a section of the game Full Throttle - Kevin was a figure that I heard about and even read a little about in 2600 magazine. We had phone wires that we would string up all over the basement to get to the different computers.... it was the era of Napster and Hacks and Cracks.
Anyhow, I have grown up and now buy my music on Amazon MP3, and for the most part use free ad supported web based applications. But reading about one of the early hackers is going to be fun and I really look forward to it!
