Me. I don't.

I mean, the series started off really interesting with the Handbook of Automated Data Control and then the sequel which had the flashback to the German V rockets and OperationnPaperclip, but it went off the rails for me once they started getting into NOAA satellite packet switching. Don't get me wrong, "Perturbations in Perigee and Eccentricity at the Critical Inclination" had a surprising twist what with the whole "oddball gravitational effects" thingy, but it was too little too late for me.

I moved on to Supercar.
