Edward Dillinger, Jr. is the son of the programmer and former ENCOM Senior Executive Ed Dillinger. In 2010, he is a board member at ENCOM, and has taken over the development of ENCOM OS 12, formerly known as Flynn OS.

Biography

On the eve of the launch for ENCOM OS 12, Edward was among the other ENCOM members of the board when Sam Flynn stole into the ENCOM Tower and hacked into ENCOM's servers. Edward was quick to see something was wrong when a movie clip of Flynn's dog, began playing during a screen presentation, and was among the the first to react. Although he was the one who entered in the kill command to stop the clip from playing, he was unable to prevent the data leak however, and retired off-screen after calmly suggesting that the pirate hack should be portrayed as an act of generosity from ENCOM to the public.
