Ah, Cryptonomicon by Neal Stepehson updated for the internet age. Worth reading if you havent.

Updated nothing, that sounds like Cryptonomicon's fictional Sultanate of Kinakuta.
Thank you for the pointer toward what seems like an excellent read! Just ordered it on Amazon.
All his stuff is great. If you like it, check the baroque cycle too
Just as a counterpoint: while I like his stuff in general, I disliked the baroque cycle (but still read the whole thing).

My recommendation: Anathem.

If anyone should ask I will explain my opinion on the baroque cycle.
