Geeks of Another Era (Score 1)

I have yet to hear anyone mention my favorite series for budding techies of the pre-PC era: "Rick Brant's Electronic Adventures" a series by John Blaine. These are now out of print, but told the tales of a Johnny Quest-like teenager who lived on his father's private island research compound and joined the resident scientists on expeditions around the world. I'm 34 and I still want Rick Brant's life!
