Cryptonomicon (by Neal Stephenson)

I'd like to think I've been a good boy.

I've read Snow Crash, The Diamond Age and Anathem, quite
recently. But I just can't get into the story of
Cryptonomicon (I've read about 200 pages).

Anathem didn't really resonate with me until 200 pages into
the book -- from then on it was one hell of a ride.

Perhaps I'm being lazy, not truly hardcore.

Do we have any Stephenson fans here who could give me some
healthy advice?
