Has anyone heard of the Geek Mafia books? - I've read the first one and I'm half way through the second one. Really enjoying both of them!

The first and second are available at ManyBooks.net and the third is just available in print form from what I can tell...
So... firstly I urge you to go read them - they're great. Secondly, if you have read them or the description sounds like something else then can you suggest any other books I might also enjoy?
I think what I like most about it is that it's 'real world' based if you like - e.g Neuromancer was supposed to be a classic but it was a bit too fantasy to appeal to me.
Oh and whilst it's slightly connected I've read The Millennium Trilogy in case anyone was going to suggest that.
