Triumph of the Nerds

The heroes of the Personal Computer Revolution are not the brisk military sort nor the buttoned-down business executives that any banker would love to see walk in the door. What they are is brash and funny, sometimes visionary, but still, well, nerds. The series is written and presented by Bob Cringley, a writer well-known in computer circles. He captures the personal version of how it all happened from interviews with Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and a cast of colorful generally awkward but highly amusing, er, geeks. Three tape set.

Participating in "No Historical Backspin" Antifascist Benefit
Right now, in Holland, such strange bedfellows as hooligans, queers, neo-cons and feminists are forced to unite to fight religious fascism carelessly imported from abroad... In Eastgermany's Saxonia however, events seems to be less confusing: Victim and aggressor still know their place and don't morph or fluctuate in such a politically uncorrect manner as they do in the Netherlands: Fascists are white, their ideology is racial, not religious, and their victims are blameless "foreigners", preferably coloured. (But as there are hardly any of those in Eastern Germany, xenophobia already plays a part in the attitude towards people from the next town..) In places like historical Pirna -the famous town of the Cnaletto painting- a straightforward hatred of anything different rules, ideologically simplistic in comparison to the dutch situation.
