I originally posted this over at aw.net but thought it might be of interest here too:
I stumbled across a book called Commodork: Sordid tales of a BBS junkie by Rob O'Hara on the Amazon Kindle store (paperback version also available). It is about a guy's journey from the late 70s' through to the 90s, using Apple, Commodore and PCs.
It doesn't feature Amigas but makes a mention of them, but the book would certainly have similarities with many of our early computing lives - BBSes, IRC, Warez, Copyfests and parties with like minded geeks (Big Bash in Peterborough comes to mind)
I have done a mini review on my blog
here.
If this book sounds up-your-street, check it out. For Kindle users, it is under a pound, so not a great risk to give it a go!
