About

Tom has a computer like most kids. He writes an excellent program on it for a game and thinks he can become rich by selling its disc for $20 each. He also feels that with a better computer especially one that talks, he can write better games and get more money.

He dreams of becoming rich and popular, being on television and signing many autographs. When he is tired of signing the autographs he imagines hiring his friends to type his name. so, he wants to buy a new computer, a printer and copier and give out computer sheets with his typed name on them instead of autographs.

Tom decides to call his friends for the typing job. What happens next is not what Tom expected.
