The Root of All Evil

Rating:
Summary: A little dated now, but funny nonetheless...
Review: Although a bit dated, containing strips related to the Y2K craze here and there, this little book is still otherwise as funny and timely as any commentary on the computer industry could be. The X-Men and Borg references are absolutely hysterical. If you work in a tech job, you should be reading User Friendly.

Summary: You must "rm -R /" from the shelves by buying it!
Review: Great book for the geek! I start my day at work with my fix of the "Daily Static" otherwise know as the User Friendly comic strip. ...

It touches on many of the issues facing the technical geek today from the point of view of the geek. Issues range from the AOL, Time-Warner merger to the geek and dating (yes, it is an oxymoron).

The cast of characters are all well developed, even if they do only have four fingers. It is an enjoyable read and re-read. Get this for yourself or for your favorite geek. They will enjoy it!

Summary: Very funny stuff
Review: If you don't find at least some of the strips very funny, you should have your geek status removed. :)

Summary: Side-splitting funny!
Review: Iliad's The Root Of All Evil is the third and latest compilation of the online mega hit comic strip, "User Friendly". The "User Friendly" comic strip holds no sacred cows, but pokes particular humor at the world of online techies, harried customer support service staff, Internet computer game addicts, narcissistic sales staff, and computer programmers who secretly plot world domination. There is a reason why one million readers in more than a hundred nations (including Israel, Brazil, Iceland, New Zealand, and Greece) have logged into Userfriendly.org to follow "User Friendly" comics. The reason is that "User Friendly" is side-splitting funny, even - or especially - for those of us who have lagged behind a bit in the wake of the technical revolution. The Root Of All Evil is a fresh breath of originality, guaranteed hilarious, and absolutely, positively, not to be missed. Highly, wholeheartedly, enthusiastically recommended!

Review: It's a good book, but I think previous books have been funnier.

Review: Once again, Illiad has given us a book filled with the familiar cast of characters from Dust Puppy and Erwin to the ever-frustrated AJ. User Friendly continues to make people from all over the IT world (and beyond) laugh as Illiad keeps his finger on what really is funny about computers and life in the digital age.
