I liked the first season because the relationship between Joe and Gordon was realistic -- it was basically the relationship between Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, Joe, like Jobs, was a slick charismatic character with little technical skill who piggybacks on the work of Gordon, as Jobs did Wozniak. The later seasons about Mutiny seemed to happen in a fantasy world that didn't really reflect the reality of the 1980s tech world despite the superficial resemblance of Mutiny to Habitat.
