This book changed my lifeThe Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.
What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?
Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

I can't remember the titlebut it was a book about programming the ZX Spectrum that my dad brought home from the library.
Never mind the fact that we didn't own a spectrum (nor any computer at all), I found it fascinating. So much so that I learnt to program BASIC without the aid of a computer, which led me to where I am now...
I do technical support, write programs, occasionally design websites, and spend the rest of my time buzzing around in company vans and cars trying to fix shit old computers for no money.
Thanks dad.
