Antipodean EyeComputers had been linked by various makeshift networks in the Seventies, but I knew something new was up (in 1982) when the Boss, who knew nothing about computers, nevertheless decided to use a new network (called the Internet) to monitor us poor students from around the world, so he could move to New Zealand for six months of academic labor and carefree Southern frolic.
