ARA was mentioned, and Dan P. in particular, because he was instrumental
in securing the said cherry Duetto for the host to cruise around in. I
guess that's the big thing in Silicon Valley documentaries. Remember the
similarly titled "Triumph of the Nerds" a few years ago? The host in that
one cruised around in a red convertible of some sort. I think it was an
early Thunderbird (but post "T-Bird") or some other Detroit iron.
