As a teenage geek, he discovered his gift for programming computers-but his attempts to understand women only confirm that he's better at writing code than connecting with human beings. Brilliant, neurotic, and lonely, Eric spends high school in the solitary glow of a screen. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e By his early twenties, Eric's talent has made him a Silicon Valley millionaire.
