Good catch.  I thought "pengo" seemed like a familiar name but hadn't put it together.

I don't think I read the Masters of Deception: The Gang That Ruled Cyberspace book, not sure why as I do recall hearing about it, gotta add it to the list I guess.  I've heard positive things about this book from others too.

Not sure which book is "Cyberpunk", searching for that is tricky as it brings up all kinds of stories in the cyberpunk genre, hard to look it up without the author's name.
