Looking for a teen FICTION book- computers or technology?

I am a middle school/high school teacher. I teach computers. I'm looking for a teen fiction book that is about computers or technology.



I'd like for my class to read something (fiction)that relates to computers and technology.



Do you know of such a book? My students are ages 11-15 years old.

Ender's Game is really good, I read it when I was about ten myself. It doesn't really deal with computers in today's sense though, the same thing goes for Virtual War, which is another computer-realted futuristic story.



The only other thing I can think of is a book called Head Games. It's is about two kids who become unlikely friends after meeting through an online role-playing game. It's by Mariah Fredericks, and is reccomended for 7th grade and up.



Edit: Oh yeah, there's also another pretty good one called Evil Genius which is about a boy who goes to a school to learn to be a villan. It doesn't totally revolve around computers, but they are pretty important to it. He gets kicked out of school for hacking, and later on at his new "learn to be evil school" it involves an eccentric computer class. The main character also starts up a online "dating site" which he runs and replies to ads himself. It's one of my favorite books.
