“The Root of All Evil” welcomes you to the world of the
hard-core geek, where humor–especially at one’s own foibles–is a
survival skill. “The Root of All Evil” is O’Reilly’s third
installment from the hit online comic strip, User Friendly. Its
cast of characters deal with too little office space, warring
operating systems, and eternally clueless customers. Tag along as
geeks go camping, Mike finds a new use for Silly Putty, and Stef
decides to beef up his Quake skills with the Acme Forced-Feedback
Enemy-Denial Smackdown Ergonomic Game Chair.
