Too Long; Didn't Read

Hacking started with video games when he was 8 years old. His first game was Super Mario Bros. 3 for the Nintendo Entertainment System. His parents upgraded him from the NES to a cheap, used PlayStation, which he enjoyed and appreciated. Then we got a PC, a mid-range PC capable of surfing the web on Windows 98. He became a Linux fiire when his family’s computer broke and we couldn’t afford to replace it. Hacking: Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution by Steven Levy.
