Reader ReviewsFor researchers into personal computing, Allan has amassed a useful bibliography of key books and articles. He divides these into various lists. Where a list might be about the IBM PC, and another list is about Apple. Just thumbing through the lists should bring back memories for some readers. You may well have read that book about the rise and fall of Steve Jobs at Apple. Which was written before his triumphant re-entry. Or perhaps you remember Jerry Pournelle's musings in Byte magazine? Alas, that magazine is no longer with us in hardcopy form. Though Pournelle is still very much around. [And grumpy as usual!]
