"The Grid. A digital frontier. A world beyond the screen, as real as our own. I can picture it -- clusters of information, rising like cities. Programs as complex as you and me. In just a few years, we're gonna be able to enter this world. And a few years after that... well, this world will come into ours. Intelligent life from inside the machine. I, for one, can't wait to meet it."
