SciFi
author of the "The Hacker and the Ants". Also the robot (
boppers
) vs humans trilogy of "Software", "Wetware", and "Freeware". Good interesting author who actually understands
programming
and
robotics
. Or maybe I don't understand those two subjects and just think he does.

Math
and
computer science
professor, programmer, and
cyberpunk
writer who dresses better, has a cooler name, and writes more sex scenes in his books than
William Gibson
and
Bruce Sterling
. Computer geeks might also enjoy the Actual Computer Science Concepts and dry
satire
permeating the books, although some of the
prose
and characters connecting it come off as corny, at least compared to, say,
Neal Stephenson
's.

Note: The following is an opinion, not fact. It is anti-Rudy, and is based on one (half) reading of his books.
Rudy
, well, as far as i can tell, can't write. There was little
symbolism
or basically
anything
of real substance in his
book
"
software
", most of which consisted of
sex
between
humans
and
squishies
, an act that the reader doesn't need to hear
about
twice, let alone
30
times. See
Stephenson
for
cyberpunk
fun
, and
William Gibson
for
symbolism
and all that
deep stuff
.
