Seeing the flashy car and the retro, soft-rock soundtrack, makes me wish Michael Mann would direct a film pitting Steve Jobs against Bill Gates, ala Pacino and De Niro in Heat - but with lots of guns and a timout for reflection in a coffeeshop, thrown in for good measure.
Programming is adictive, it takes a while to learn but once you got it you can spend days tapping away. The longest i have spent was 3 days (58 hours roughly) at my Uni working on my final year project. Stop for a coffee and a bite to eat and thats it.

PERSONAL COMPUTERS RULE!
YouTube has better music than the goddamn radio!
Just say NO to radio, and say YES to YouTube!
YOUTUBE 4 LIFE!
BTW, Bill Gates is my favorite nigger! MICROSOFT ALL THE WAY! Apple is somewhat there with their iPod; but Macintosh is behind on that.
