Did anybody see the pilot episode of AMC's latest original series yesterday? My favorite part was when Joe was helping Gordon reverse engineer the IBM BIOS. Joe would read off the TTL voltage from the oscilloscope as Gordon probed each pin. Then as Gordon read off the hexadecimal code using his breadboarded L.E.D. display so Joe could write it down; Joe asked how many addresses there were. "56,536." It was a long weekend project. 
The ending scene as the IBM lawyers began marching into Cardiff Electronics was also good.
Double post merged with original. Please don't double post, thanks. ~ Dr. N

Season finale was tonight. The closing shot was of Joe hiking toward Colorado's Fiske Observatory in search of a woman. There's a lot of fans commenting on-line about how Joe has been beaten and is now searching for enlightenment.
But I have figured out the real reason Joe was hiking to the Fiske Observatory...
He's going to contact the mothership to pick him up.
I hope there's a season 2!
Sorry Dr. N I meant to create a sockpuppet so that I could comment on later series stuff seperately but I didn't create the fake account for some reason I forgot. I'm sure it was a good reason though.  |
