Into PCs

Lee Pace (TV’s Pushing Daisies, Lincoln) and Argo’s Scoot McNairy (pictured here) are gonna do it.

They’re working together, you dirty birds.

Although there’s an image, huh.

Anyway, the pair is set to co-star in a new AMC drama pilot from Breaking Bad executive producer Mark Johnson titled Halt & Catch Fire.

The show will be set in the early 1980s and center around a visionary (Pace), an engineer (McNairy), and a prodigy whose personal computing innovations stack directly against the corporate train of thought of the time. Further conflict will come when the trio’s personal and professional rapports are challenged by old faithfuls greed and ego as they chart a new path for Texas’ Silicon Prairie.

I could get into this, especially given the level of talent involved.
