Robert Cringely's book is a witty, wide-ranging examination of the PC industry's humble origins, haphazard but phenomenal growth, and competitive future. The author was there at the beginning in the early 1970's, when Intel introduced a microprocessor device and outlaw engineers used it to build a PC that could be assembled by hobbyists, and has seen it all. His book is a highly entertaining history of the personal computer industry, highlighted by insightful profiles of the rather eccentric personalities at its core Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Mitch Kapor. 4.5 pgs. 3 f/c. 1b.
