Oh, look, a PDF copy of the book: http://www.microsoft.no/nedlastning/.../Mommybook.pdf

Still trying to track down copies of "Rover the dog says "SYN/ACK!" and "How to be the Best at Firewall Configuration (The Boy's Book)"

Like wetherford said, its been a looong while.
I remembered the change directory command but it kinda ruined the flow so I went for style over commitment to reality.

Nowadays if Im doing anything in console its on a unix based OS

Pokemon has jack squat to do with being OG 1337. The picture above you, however, does.

You know, I haven't picked up a copy in probably 15 years. My old roommate in college actually had a subscription.

2600 is a good read. Been a couple of years since I read one. I should ask for a subscription as a b-day gift or something. I bet that I'm one of the younger people (21) on here that know what it is.

I'll admit I'm out of the loop on 2600 and whatever og 1337 is. Feel like I put on the dunce cap with this one.
