- Perhaps some kind soul in NetLand can help me out.
-
- Years ago I read a piece of fiction about a guy (I think that the
- character's name was Eddie Argo) who was a computer programmer for
- the city of Buffalo NY. The character fakes his own death, steals
- a van and a computer, and becomes a hi-tech Robin Hood, travelling
- around the country hacking into systems to "steal from the rich and
- give to the poor". I've been looking for the book the past couple
- of years but am a little bit hamstrung by the fact that not only
- can't I remember the name of the book, I *also* can't remember the
- name of the author.
-
- Can anyone help me out? I'd like to find out (at least) the name
- of the book and the authors name. The publisher and publication
- date would also really be helpful.
-
- Thanx a lot!
