...kind of image that only an expatriate could have made, and Steinberg, before anything else, was an expatriate. When dictators in the 1930s ranted about rootless Jews, Steinberg was what they had in mind. Born near Bucharest, Romania, the son of a printer (hence an early fascination with type), he studied architecture in Milan in the early '30s. He never designed a real building, but he was to develop an exquisite sense of architectural convention, of stylistic parody, that shows in the dream skyscrapers and iron galleries of his later cityscapes.

(The $150 kit also came with extra power strips.) He then installed the software, provided on one CD-ROM, into both PCs. "This was definitely something we were looking for," he says...
...still have the latest programs. Time to break out your 3 1/2 floppies and head on over to the House computer lab, usually the dankest, darkest and coldest part of the building. Tolerate the odd smell just long enough to surmise that half the PCs are dead and the printer is out of paper...
