OtE is easily the best "computer history" book Ive read dealing with C= and their products, instead of ignoring them like just about every other title does.  Personal computing seems to have begun when M$ released Windows 3.1 in most books.

I found it a little dull in places, talking about the machinations and failings of C= bureaucracy, I was hoping for something a bit more fun and nostalgic, reliving the enjoyment I had when those machines were new, perhaps sharing some insights into the creative thought processes of the machines' development, like product design, chip architecture, technical specs etc.
