Title: In this future, we are all politically correct Californians
Review: The comment about being a profound disapoointment, rang true for me too. There is no inspiration here; just alot of formulaic pc ideas that have no life, no depth, no breadth to them; they are never fleshed out, just a string of descriptives: Capuccino, PC, the Kaypro, The Osborne, MAC lives! O comeon, there's more to sci-fi than reading PC Week.Alot of reading this book is like going to Fry's Electronics in Sunnyvale & not FINDING the diy computer kits; just the brand name pre-assembled off-the-shelf pcs & wondering why everyone is talking about this place; as a Niven (and Fry Electronics :-) fan I felt as though I had been rooked; it was incredibly boring and drawn out to get ....where?I honestly could not recommend this book that takes 10 chapters to get to some kind of plot & then jumps someplace before you totally understand what's happening.Buy it used if you must; read it at your own peril.
