The Torpometronomicon

"TORPO is the funniest geek book in the omniverse." ~ D. Bursky

"Monty Python's IT Dept meets The Onion on PRNewsWire." ~ A. Kircher


A tech-humor cult mainstay, this historic AcmeVaporware compilation is arguably the weirdest and funniest tech-parody snapshot of an era ever written. Author Gary Clemenceau is a seer and mad hatter of the first order.

Contained herein are all of (fictitious) mega-corporation AcmeVaporware's,"Yesterday's Technology Tomorrow!" press releases, supersecret communiques, Powerpointless Presentation notes, impossible product manuals, and general Layer 1 colonic errata associated with a Decade of Tech-Torpor Under the Influence. As you well know, corporate press releases in general are a big stupid archaic waste of time -- and AcmeVaporware's corporate press releases and psychotronic phlogiston are no exception -- BUT, they're the only ones you'll ever read all the way through OUT LOUD, while laughing. So long as corporate life remains an inhuman slog through grey-minded cubicles, The TORPOMETRONOMICON will ring true.

But wait, there's more.

An insane workof staggering Physical-Layer genius, The TORPOMETRONOMICON is not onlythe ULTIMATE in IT/network bathroom reading (now BANNED in several tech companies), it's also one of the few reference books on nearly every helpdesk from Alphaville to Zebulon. When in doubt, pull out the manual!
