Columbia Pictures has apparently optioned Tracy Kidder's
"The Soul of a New Machine".  Anyone know if plans to actually
make a movie of this are underway?
Only a few even vaguely realistic films dealing with 
computer hackers have ever been made so this could be quite a first.
My favorites thus far include:  Demon Seed and Tron (interesting
hackers but lousy movies).
