Once, I say, I am a huge fan of Apple Computers and the Mac OS. I’m also a Sci-Fi guy; not über-geek, but a fan. So I’m also really looking forward to the release of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. It’s no secret that Douglas Adams was a fan of the Mac as well. One of Adams’ friends has written a beautiful piece about Adams. You should read it. It not only brings together some of my interests, but it’s a good piece of writing.

Any person who dresses up as Queen Amidala and has Jar Jar P’jamies is an uber-geek. We at MIT salute you.
Wait, so why did you drag MACs into this? SciFi is great. Everyone loves geeks except for the dim. HG is sure to be great. Where do macs fit in?
Ghost Dog, just so you know how culturally clueless you are, it’s Princess Leia, and Yoda PJs.
