Operating Systems:
	Operating System Concepts ... Peterson & Silbershatz
	Operating Systems, Design and Implementation ... Tanenbaum

Science Fiction:
	The Hitchhikers Guide series ... Douglas Adams
	Stranger in a Strange Land ... Robert Heinlein
	The Dispossed ... Ursula LeGuin

The SciFi discussion is gonna go crazy actually, on second thought it
probably shouldn't be discussed here ...
