Synopsis

How many times have you said, 'This computer has a mind of its own?' Now it's true. Clyde is alive with a mind of his own.Clyde is a computer with a human personality and, (like all computers) has an independent attitude He lives in an advertising agency with his user, Sam, where he causes trouble, while Sam, of course, gets blamed. Clyde does, however, have a weakness and, at times, gets carried away with the lure of the Internet. Clyde amplifies our love-hate relationship with computers (love them when they work; want to dump them off a cliff when they're obstinate), and has his own opinions, which he offers without being prompted. But it does not stop there. Clyde is more human than computer. He goes through life's situations just like the rest of us. He wants companionship, feels the effects of aging, cheats at cards, and overall has a life of his own while we look in and get some laughs along the way.If you spend any time with a computer, you'll get a kick out of this book. Isn't it time you had a laugh at your computer's expense?
