The Story of Cindy, Social Worker: Cindy became the Celebrity Chat Queen for Cyber-America literally overnight, but just as fame has its price, so did working with FAME magazine and its seemingly endless supply of strange, and often obscure "guests" - the oddest of which was a certain burnt-out 60's rock star, who didn't know a modem from a mandala.

The Story of Boyd, Cab Driver: When Boyd was hired as a writer at CPU Central he thought he had left the sleaziness of his porn store job behind. Little did he know that he was about to get wrapped up in 14-hour days and a level of human perversion even lower than anything he had experienced. The perverts and junkies of Market Street had nothing on these people.

The Story of K, Fry Cook: This story recounts how one man went from a lowly desktop support tech to the King of Production for Challenger, only to be burned alive by the schemings of his new manager.

The Story of Office Kilmartin, Cyber Cop: This story recounts the shocking experiences of a former Prodigy employee deep in the thick of the online service's death throes. What some call "paranoia"; others view as a learned prescience.
