Hobbit is an interesing guy. Old hacking article.

I was doing some surfing the other day and came across this 1997 article
http://www.blackhat.com/media/bh-usa...t-eetimes.html

It talks about fellow hybrid-enthusiast Hobbit, (Al Walker) and his meeting with Microsoft regarding cracking Microsoft's security.

Hobbit sure has a wide range of talent.

A cool security devise would be the OS to change and harass the hacker.

Re: Hobbit is an interesing guy. Old hacking article.

oh noooo, you've discovered my secret life. Well, okay,
not so secret. But in its way not nearly as rewarding as
hanging out with you folks, because you actually *care*
about stuff. Microsnot? F'geddaboudit. These days I've
been heads-down in powerpoint-wrangling for UDHEV, but I
still steadfastly refuse to let any windoze box under my
control touch the internet, end of story.
.
I'm quite certain that almost everyone else here has an
interesting story or three to tell, though...
