We get Wired at my house in dead-tree form. I've enjoyed watching how, as the magazine's core market gets older, its typography gets less illegible. No more white font set sideways and swirling over neon green and orange for them!
But that's not actually my point. My point is this article filled me with pure envy. Why can't I have a 3,000+ square foot room full of ornately decorative and rare books? Designed especially for me and full of nifty knick-knacks?
However, I have one point of complaint. I suppose it is Mr. Walker's right to do whatever he wants with the rare old books he owns, but I wish he'd reconsider the use of post-its. Unless they're special archival post-its? I was under the impression that post-it adhesive is NOT ph-neutral, and thus could damage those one of a kind 1400s era tomes.
But this is mere jealous nitpickery. The accompanying photos are pure geek porn for the type of geek I am.
*sigh*
