So have you ever seen one of these before?

November 25th, 2008 | Category: Books, Snow Crash

I was trolling around and found this, the Subterranean Press edition of Snow Crash.  I am a bit too late it seems but better late than never!  Sounds pretty neat, I naturally went to check out Amazon and found that there are a few of the signed editions available out there.  It is just a wee bit out of my price range, but have any of you seen this in person?  Is it as cool as it sounds and maybe worth the $200+ for the signed edition?  Maybe something to think about for those still making out Christmas lists.

Over here is a very good Der Spiegel interview with Mr. Stephenson, with a little about his past books, prophetic fortelling current events, and Facebook Doppelgangers’.  Not any earth-shattering new revelations but a good interview and worth the read.
