"hackoff.com is about an entrepreneur who is a real character, he was arrested in the early 90s for hacking into banks' computers to show their vulnerability. After being released from jail, he started a consulting company and then created a company called Hackoff.com in 1996 which went public during the go-go years. He is found dead in his office in 2003.
