Am I the only one who thought of a programming rather than an actual library?

I have to admit, I am usually turned off by "rich-guy buys everything opulence". Remember the Perkins "sailboat" story from a week or two ago? I love sailboats and Perkins' new mega-toy didn't turn me on at all. But this library does seem more like my kind of opulence ;). tres magnific!!

Next time link directly to the WIRED article. Stephen Levy is an excellent writer and I don't need Cory Doctorow's useless comments.

Looks a bit like Rapture from Bioshock.

Sadly, owning a chandelier from a James Bond movie doesn't make you James Bond. It does not even make you an author of a James Bond movie script. Similar things go for the other stuff in the library...
