"According
to Entertainment Weekly, TNT will be broadcasting in
May a show called "Pirates of Silicon Valley", which will
follow Steve Jobs (Noah "ER" Wyle) and Bill
Gates (Anthony Michael "Wierd Science" Hall).
Supposedly this should be "accessible even to the
non-computer savvy" " In other words, it probably won't
be interesting to us. But I'm curious- We should SlashNET
simulcast it and MST it into another dimension. Anyway, that
link requires a paid login, but I've seen this elsewhere too
so it's definitely true. Someone post some free links
if you find 'em.

It's weird seeing these actors portraying Steve and Gates... the guy who plays Gates is a little too buff.
But yeah, it's gonna air in April.

Make sure to check out his latest album in real audio. It's a keeper.

funny comedy (!) about the design and testing of
the Bradley (alleged) Fighting Vehicle. No really,
it's *funny* (although I guess it helps to have
spent 8 years in the military and the defense
racket). Check it out. If Burke did "Pirates of
Silicon Valley" anywhere near as well, it will be
a real hoot!
